Objectives
The course aims at giving an introduction to communication systems and its use in industrial environments. It also gives insight in technical aspects of the different transmission media.

Topics
Basic topics (communication model, topologies, OSI-referenence model)
Communication techniques (analog modulation AM, FM, PM; puls modulation, digital modulation; multiplexing; encryption; error coding techniques)
Transmission media (free space, electrical conductors, optical fibres)
Implementations (modem, fieldbus, Profibus, CAN-bus, ...)

Prerequisites
Analog and digital elekctronics, physics, signals and systems

Final Objectives
(AC2) To be able to collect and use relevant scientifical and technical information for industrial communication systems.
(AIC2) To be able to understand, implement and deploy new technologies and/or new theories for industrial communication systems.
(SC) To be able to achieve understanding concerning industrial communication systems and their deployment.
