Condition No prerequisites.
The goal The purpose of the course is to introduce students with the basic principles of telecommunications, considering the signal transmission, organization and operating principles of telecommunication networks, as well as the possibilities of their application for communication and management in power systems.
The outcome Students will know the analog and digital transmission basics, and comprehend the operation of telecommunication networks by studying main topologies, technologies and underlying protocols. They will understand the basic operating principles of radio networks, optical networks and power line communications, and gain the basic knowledge of smart grid technology in the domain of telecommunications.
