Wireless System Design

Wireless systems are commonly used in our day-to-day life. Different applications impose different design trade-offs and optimizations. This course will cover various building blocks (filters, channel coding, MIMO algorithms, carrier/timing recovery, and preamble design) of a complete wireless system and their respective design trade-offs. Students will implement these building blocks in Simulink and softwaredefined radio to enhance their understandings. The course will also cover various wireless standards, RF chain and analog-digital co-design, digital implementation platforms, and DSP arithmetic. Prerequisites: One of EE 279, EE 359, EE 379, or equivalent.
