This course is the basic discipline of telecommunication theory and relevant techniques. In addition to an information theory introduction, it includes the study of signal and architecture of communication systems, amplitude and angle modulation, modulation and demodulation techniques and so forth. The important concepts like noise, interference, channel distortion, intersymbol interference and entropy are also elucidated with the help of system simulator. Example transmitter and receiver of broadcasting communication systems and cellular communication systems are also highlighted. The course objective allows the students to acquire the basic engineering understanding to the modern communication systems and; the relevant theory and technique.
