Course Information

Course content

The two lectures "Mobile Communications" (Mobilkommunikation) and "Wireless Networks" (Drahtlose Netze) give a bottom-up introduction to the area of mobile and wireless communication systems. The main goal is to give a fundamental understanding of the principles behind wireless transmission and networking. Current technologies, such as UMTS, LTE and IEEE 802.11, are used as examples to explain these principles. Moreover, a whole chapter is dedicated to ad hoc networks. The lectures are complemented by group projects, whose results are discussed in class and tutorial courses with exercises.

Topics

  • Introduction and Overview
  • Antennas
  • Radio Propagation
  • Coding, Modulation, and Duplexing
  • Multiple Access and Cellular Concept
  • Medium Access Control (MAC) Protocols
  • Wireless LAN 802.11
  • Network Architecture and Mobility Protocols
  • LTE Networks
  • Security in Mobile Networks
  • Ad Hoc Networks
  • Economic, Health, and Social Aspects

Prior knowledge expected

computer networks (Rechnernetze) communications engineering (Nachrichtentechnik) stochastics (Stochastik)
