This course is to provide junior-year EE undergraduate students an overview of communication systems. In particular, it covers the concepts of information, source and channel coding, carrier, modulation, channel, demodulation, noise, fading, equalization, decoding, etc.
(전자전기공학의 가장 중요한 분야중의 하나인 통신공학에 관한 기초적인 이론들과 그 응용방법을 포괄적으로 다룸으로서 학부수준에서 필수적인 지식을 제공한다.)

1. Quarter-term Quiz 1 (09:30-10:00, TBA, LG 102) 10 %
2. Mid-term exam (19:00-21:00, Mon., TBA, LG 102) 20 %
3. Three Quarter-term Quiz 2 (09:30-10:00, TBA, LG 102) 10 %
4. Final Exam (19:00-21:00, Mon., TBA, LG 102) 30 %
5. Homework: 30 %
6. Attendance: on/off (According to the university rule, more than 1/4 of unEXCUSED ABSENCEs lead to F without exception.)
* Extra-credit final report:
Submit a ppt/pdf file and a 15-20 min. recorded presentation file.
Topics for your final report must be approved before the final exam.
If the extra-credit final report is satisfactory, then the final grade will be one-step (+,0,-) increased without penalizing other students who have chosen not the submit reports.

* No S/U for undergraduate students. A final grade lower than B0 will be converted to U for S/U graduate students.
