M.Tech (ECE) with Specialization in Digital Communication (Part Time and Full Time)

M.Tech course in Digital Communication Systems aims at providing in-depth knowledge to students of Electronics and Telecommunication background in various subject of present day interest like Advanced Digital Communication. Modern DSP, Advanced Embedded System, Antenna Theory and Design, Digital Electronics, Error control and coding, Advanced Computer Architecture, along with a course on Linear Algebra and elective courses like CMOS VLSI Design, Wireless & Mobile Network, Advances in VSLI design, Real Time Operating System which the student have option to select various other subjects of their interest.

The main course on Advanced Digital Communication enriches the student with concepts of digital modulation, channel coding, equalization techniques, spread spectrum communication and communication through fading channel. This course gives an overall idea of basic modulation techniques and gives an introduction to orthogonal frequency division multiplexing and an insight into the channel coding techniques specifically taking convolution coding. Different methods of convolution encoding and decoding techniques are discussed serving as a foundation for turbo coding. It also deals with spread spectrum communication giving importance to application such as code division multiple accesses. This course also gives an opportunity to the student to understand and implement various systems using the utilities of communication tool box in Matlab.

The aim of this course is to present the fundamentals of error control coding techniques and develop theoretical and practical skills in the design of error control encoders/decoders.
