Modulation Techniques
Discussion of Modulation Techniques
| 016 | Modern Digital Modulation Techniques This five-day course is an in-depth study of modulations used in modern digital communication systems such as the IMT-2000 system and the wireline DSL systems. Modulation techniques covered include Gaussian Minimum Shift Keying (GMSK), pi/4-QPSK for wireless communications; Discrete Multitone (DMT), Quadrature Amplitude Modulation, QAM, Carrierless AM-PM, and CAP for wireline systems. Trellis coding, Viterbi algorithms, and multiple access techniques are also discussed, with particular emphasis on CDMA and WCDMA. There will be a special emphasis on the OFDM multiple access technique as well as an in-depth discussion of CDMA and WCDMA. Course 016-4282:Oct 18-Oct 22, 2010: Greenbelt, MD Presented by Irving Kalet Register by 9/13/2010 and pay $1995, otherwise pay $2195 |
| 210 | Practical Wireless Signal Fundamentals Physically intuitive understanding is the purpose for this course on Wireless signal and system fundamentals. Understanding why these signals and techniques work, not just how, is the objective of these three days. Course 210-4362:Mar 21-Mar 23, 2011: San Jose, CA Presented by Earl McCune Jr. Register by 2/14/2011 and pay $1395, otherwise pay $1495 |
| 161 | Applied Design of RF/Wireless Products and Systems This three-day course focuses on digital modulation in a practical context. RF designs for cellular phones, wireless LANs, and other cordless products have a difficult journey from concept to mass production. Not only are specialist skills required to architect these systems, and to invent suitable circuit topologies, but also to solve the integration and manufacturability issues of a high volume product. This course teaches the practicalities of turning a prototype circuit into a design suitable for production. Course 161-4338:Feb 28-Mar 02, 2011: San Diego, CA Presented by Chris Potter Register by 1/24/2011 and pay $1395, otherwise pay $1495 |
| 205 | Wireless Systems Operations This five-day course covers the fundamentals of wireless system design, deployment, and operation. Participants will study indoor and outdoor signal propagation characteristics, advanced modulation and coding techniques, and network connectivity options. Next, the IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n WLAN, IEEE 802.15.1 Bluetooth, WiMedia high-rate WPAN, and IEEE 802.15.4 ZigBee low-rate WPAN specifications are examined in detail, and their operations compared. Interference between various wireless networks is analyzed and methods for improving their coexistence are presented. Finally, the operation of GSM/CDMA cellular systems and IEEE 802.16 WiMAX is discussed. Course 205-4316:Dec 06-Dec 10, 2010: San Jose, CA Presented by Robert K. Morrow Register by 11/1/2010 and pay $1995, otherwise pay $2195 |
| 150 | Wireless System Design and Simulation This course starts by reviewing digital wireless communications and a variety of modulation formats, and the tradeoffs between capacity, bandwidth, signal power, and noise. We look at the upconversion and downconversion processes in typical receiver and transmitter architectures, and the effects of filtering. Please see the course outline for day one. |
| 081 | Digital RF Communication Systems This course covers a broad range of subjects related to digital communications, including modulation and demodulation techniques. Other topics covered include propagation and a description of the components in a wireless communications system block diagram |
| 077 | CDMA and OFDM: The Radio Interface This five-day course provides participants with an introduction to CDMA and OFDM. CDMA is the physical interface of the IS-95 and IMT2000 3G Wideband CDMA systems, and OFDM is the radio interface of the new IEEE 802.11a and 802.16 systems. We will place special emphasis on both CDMA and OFDM (and OFDMA). Cellular concepts and fading channels are covered, as well as the basic building blocks of both CDMA and OFDM systems. The worldwide status of current and future CDMA and OFDM systems are discussed in detail. |
| 219 | GSM, GPRS, and EDGE Operations This course covers the modulation schemes employed by GSM/EDGE systems along with other comprehensive details regarding the standard. |
