Course Objectives

The goal of this course is to acquire specific knowledge in the field of measurements, testing and verifications of telecommunication systems and for the experimental characterization of their signals and devices. On successful completion of this course, the student should be able to perform tests and measurements for application in industrial and research fields. At completion of the course the student will bi able to solve test problems for the meaninful parameters characterizing a telecommunication system and its major functional components.

Course Content

Fundamentals of measurement theory and measurement instruments
Measurement of meaningful parameters of functional blocks constituting a generic Telecommunication system
Measurement of meaningful parameters of a generic Telecommunication system
Measurement methods and test equipment for Telecommunication systems
Common commercial instrumentation for measurements in the field of Telecommunication systems
Measurements of signal parameters in the time domain and in the frequency domain

Learning Outcomes (Dublin Descriptors)

On successful completion of this course, the student should

have profound knowledge of basic concepts and definitions in measurement; have profound knowledge of basic measurement theory; have knowledge and understanding of working principle of spectrum analysis instrumentation
demonstrate skill in main instruments and ability to measure signals and their associated quantities, such as power, energy, frequency, time and impedance; understand and explain the validity and the reliability of measures taken from a given system attached to a signals source;
demonstrate capacity for defining and selecting appropriate strategies to solve problems using electrical measurements as the subject
demonstrate capacity to communicate the results of technical works in a clear and coherent way, with the generation of systematic and meaningful documentation for any designed and assembled system
