Digital Communication Systems Course code: 317302 | 8 ECTS credits

Basic information

Level of Studies: Master applied studies

Year of Study: 1

Semester: 1

Requirements: Basic knowledge of computer network architecture.

Goal: The objective of the course is to introduce students to advanced types and structures of digital communication systems used for the transmission of various content as well as selected chapters from the information transfer theory on which they are based.

Outcome: After the successful completion of the course, students will be able to understand the advanced principles and techniques of digital communications and computer networks. To configure network devices, perform advanced tests, and solve complex problems in IP networks.
