Course Description

The purpose of the course is to give students the practical knowledge in analysis and design of electronic instrumentation systems as well as analysis, modeling and simulation of data transmission systems using Matlab. The course offers implementation of the concepts and tools that are taught in Electronic Instrumentation through design examples with real devices, as well as an individual hands-on experience about the concepts that are taught in the course Signal Processing in Communications.
