Introduction to EECS II: Digital Communication Systems (MIT 6.02)
Covers the bits, signals and packets layers of digital communication: error-correcting codes, modulation, frequency-domain analysis and network routing. Includes 24 lecture videos, lecture notes, the open textbook, and problem sets with solutions, building a working model of how the Internet moves data.
Principles of Digital Communications I (MIT 6.450)
Digital communication at the block-diagram level: data compression, Lempel-Ziv coding, quantization, sampling and aliasing, the Nyquist criterion, PAM and QAM modulation, waveform spaces, detection, and wireless system design. Includes 24 lecture videos, prose lecture notes and exams with solutions for analyzing communication links.
Digital Communications
Graduate-level treatment of signal design, optimum receivers, channel capacity, equalization, coding, and spread spectrum, developed from probability and random processes. Working through it gives the mathematical footing to analyze error probability and design modems for noisy, fading channels.
