Prerequisites and co-requisites
The educational discipline "Basics of digital communication" is based on the cycle of professional and practical training disciplines: "Mathematical analysis", "Differential equations and probability theory", "Basics of programming", "Radio circuits and signals". The student should know: the basics of Fourier analysis, the concept of Euclidean space, the concept of probability and moment of a random variable, the concept of correlation function and power spectral density of a random process, the model of an electric circuit as a linear system. The student should be able to: analyze and solve physical problems using methods of mathematical analysis, probability theory and algorithmic programming.
Course content
The theoretical foundations of analysis and development are studied in the course digital communication systems. The structure and functional components of telecommunications are considered systems. Emphasis is placed on mathematical models of these components. Specific topics covered in the course include spectrum analysis of analog-to-digital conversion, analysis of digital modulation varieties in the Hilbert space of signals, optimal detection and error probabilities, entropy and optimal coding of a discrete source of information. Laboratory work is an independent component of the course and allows the student to learn how to apply the acquired theoretical knowledge to analyze the functional components of the telecommunications channel through its computer simulation.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods
Lectures, laboratory works, independent work of students.
Assessment methods and criteria
Semester assessment: the thematic lecture plan is divided into two meaningful modules. Written modular control tests are conducted. Laboratory works form a separate third module. It is mandatory for credit to receive a grade of at least 60% for each module test and each report for laboratory work. maximum In the case of a student's absence due to good reasons to work out and rearrange the modules control work and laboratory work are carried out in accordance with the "Regulations on organization educational process at Kyiv National University".
