About Advanced Wireless Communication
Wireless communication technologies have witnessed revolutionary developments in the last decade with 3G, 4G and 5G. Next generation wireless networks are focused to meet various requirements like enormous bandwidth, massive number of devices connected together, low latency, long battery life, and more reliability. Various technologies like MIMO, massive MIMO, mm-wave technology, novel waveform candidates have assured the requirements. Hence, Electronics and Communication Engineering program of National Engineering College offers the elective course "Advanced Wireless Communication" to the seventh semester students to get knowledge on recent wireless communication technologies mentioned above. The ultimate objective of this course is to impart the principles, techniques, trade-offs applications and limitations of the fourth generation and the fifth generation wireless communication systems. This course covers the fundamental modulation techniques and MIMO principles of Long Term Evolution (LTE) systems. Also it focuses the foundations of Long Term Evolution – Advanced (LTE-A) techniques such as candidate waveforms for 5G, mm-wave communication and massive MIMO communication.
