Wireless Communication Fundamentals

This document outlines the objectives and units of a course on wireless communication. The course aims to study wireless channel characteristics, cellular system design, digital signaling techniques, multipath mitigation, and multiple antenna techniques. The five units cover wireless channels and path loss models, cellular architecture and multiple access techniques, digital signaling for fading channels, multipath mitigation through equalization and diversity, and multiple antenna techniques like MIMO. The student is expected to characterize wireless channels, design cellular systems, identify suitable signaling and mitigation techniques, and understand multiple antenna methods.
