ENGG812: Advanced Modulations and Coding Techniques
This unit is intended as an introduction to advanced modulation and coding techniques. Coded modulation schemes combine powerful channel coding techniques with appropriate modulation schemes to achieve power- and/or bandwidth-efficient transmission of information over noisy and fading channels. Topics covered will include: signal theory, modulation, Gaussian channel capacity, block and convolutional codes, hard- and soft-decision decoding techniques, block- and trellis-coded modulation, multidimensional lattices, and coded modulation for fading channels.
