Textbook: “Digital and Analog Communication
Systems”, 7th Edition, L. Couch, Prentice Hall, 2007, ISBN-13:
9780131424920.
Course Slides: We will
go through the course slides in the class available at http://www.sonoma.edu/users/k/kujoory/ (see
below)
I urge
you to download and review the slides before each class. You are required to read the textbook
after each class for further reinforcement.
Lab Instructions: Please got to http://www.sonoma.edu/users/e/eliza/
Attendance:
Attendance is mandatory. There will
be no excused absences except in the case of emergencies that could be
substantiated.
Class Participation: Your participation in the class and in
discussions is valued. Read the
slides before you come to class and develop questions to raise in the
class
Homework: Homework (see the list below) will be
assigned periodically. Submit your
assignment in hard copy at the beginning of the due session. Late
submission will not be accepted and will receive zero. You must use MS Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint), or
text. Hand-written solutions are
not accepted. Be neat,
and organized. There will be points
for your presentation.
Solving
problems in this course is essential. You can use the Student Solution
Manual available at http://lcouch.us or http://www.couch.ece.ufl.edu to
practice extra problem solving
Exams: A mid-term and a final exam. Exams are not optional. You will receive zero if you do not
appear for and exam.
Grading: The course grades will be based on the
following:
·
Homework
assignments 30%
·
Midterm 15%
·
Final
exam 30%
·
Lab 25%
Academic
Honesty: You are
responsible to behave ethically & honestly. Copying, cheating, forgery, and other
unethical or dishonest actions are not tolerated. See http://www.sonoma.edu/uaffairs/policies/cheating_plagiarism.htm
My Expectations:
·
Arrive
on time to attend the class.
Unexcused absences will affect your grade.
·
Turn off
cell phones, earphones and other distracting devices.
·
Preview
the slides before each lecture and after the lecture.
·
Be
responsible for materials covered in every class.
·
Hand in
your assignments on time at the beginning of the class.
·
Speak up
whenever you have suggestions or questions.
Learning
Outcome:
·
Ability
to apply knowledge of mathematics, science and technology principles to
understand technological systems plus a broad understanding of the common
terminologies and basic concepts used in analog and digital communications.
·
Ability
to use computational methods, skills, computers, and current technical tools in
practice.
·
Ability
to analyze systems and conduct experiments.
·
Ability
to analyze and interpret data to solve technical problems.
Tentative Schedule: Syllabus
of each Chapter to be Covered, Homework Assignments and Due Dates. HW problems
are from end of the chapters in the textbook unless indicated differently. The Lab instructor will provide the
syllabus for the lab sessions.
