Syllabus

Course overview and goals

In each theme of code theory, security, information theory, and communication systems, we implement representative encoding / decoding methods and modulation / demodulation methods in a simulator on a computer to solve given problems.

Course description and aims

It aims to confirm the knowledge of coding theory, security, information theory and communication systems learned at lecture, and acquire experimental method. Implement a representative method in four themes and solve the given problems, to acquire an engineering thinking about information communications.

Study advice (preparation and review)

To enhance effective learning, students are encouraged to spend a certain length of time outside of class on preparation and review (including for assignments), as specified by the Tokyo Institute of Technology Rules on Undergraduate Learning (東京工業大学学修規程) and the Tokyo Institute of Technology Rules on Graduate Learning (東京工業大学大学院学修規程), for each class.
They should do so by referring to textbooks and other course material.
