The course provides the student with specific knowledge about the statistical methods to analyze the performance of simple systems and telecommunications networks. The student will gain basic knowledge of signal and image processing for multimedia applications. The course will teach the student how to connect the different blocks of a telecommunications system in a single set of integrated and interdependent processes. Moreover, it will provide an overview of the major telecommunications systems, and will briefly describe the fundamental concepts of transmission in mobile channels.
