Modélisation de Canal

Objectives

- Defining basic concepts of propagation channel modelling
- Studying main channel models
- Determining relevant parameters
- Classifying channels
- Understanding the main disturbances due to the channel 
- Investigating different solutions to overcome these disturbances, in particular diversity techniques, mainly spatial diversity approaches (MIMO).

Description

I.   Introduction
II.  Large-scale fading (path loss/shadowing)
III. Frequency-flat channels
IV. Frequency-selective channels
V.  Parameters and channel characteristics
VI. Diversity principles
VII. Introduction to MIMO techniques

This course is illustrated by practical sessions on cellular planning using ATOLL software, developed by FORSK. These practical sessions are given by an N7 alumni, senior mobile communications Engineer at FORSK.
