Optical Wireless Communications for Beyond 5G Networks and IoT

Brought by: Swayam

Overview

ABOUT THE COURSE:Optical Wireless Communications (OWC) has become a promising technology for supporting high-data-rate 5G communication and the massive connectivity of IoT. This course broadly covers the four important aspects of OWC systems: (a) the fundamental principles of OWC, (b) devices and systems, (c) modulation techniques and (d) channel models and system performance analysis.The course also covers different challenges encountered in OWCs as well as outlining possible solutions and current research trends. The course will also involve MATLAB® simulations to help students understand the topic under discussion and to be able to carry out extensive simulations.PREREQUISITES: Signals and SystemsINDUSTRY SUPPORT: Sterlite Technologies Ltd., Tejas Networks, BSNL - other Telecom companies, BEL, ITI etc
