For further information see http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/web/terms/terms/index.htmThis course presents a top-down approach to communications system design. The course will cover communication theory, algorithms and implementation architectures for essential blocks in modern physical-layer communication systems (coders and decoders, filters, multi-tone modulation, synchronization sub-systems). The course is hands-on, with a project component serving as a vehicle for study of different communication techniques, architectures and implementations. This year, the project is focused on WLAN transceivers. At the end of the course, students will have gone through the complete WLAN System-On-a-Chip design process, from communication theory, through algorithm and architecture all the way to the synthesized standard-cell RTL chip representation.http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/Electrical-Engineering-and-Computer-Science/6-973Spring-2006/CourseHome/index.htmStojanovic, Vladimir2008-04-17T12:43:36-04:006.973en-USElectrical Engineering and Computer ScienceCommunications Systems Installation and Repair Technologycoders and decoders, filters, multi-tone modulation, synchronization sub-systemscommunicationMIT OpenCourseWare http://ocw.mit.eduContent within individual OCW courses is (c) by the individual authors unless otherwise noted.

For further information see http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/web/terms/terms/index.htmThis course is a project-based introduction to manipulating and characterizing cells and biological molecules using microfabricated tools. It is designed for first year undergraduate students. In the first half of the term, students perform laboratory exercises designed to introduce (1) the design, manufacture, and use of microfluidic channels, (2) techniques for sorting and manipulating cells and biomolecules, and (3) making quantitative measurements using optical detection and fluorescent labeling In the second half of the term, students work in small groups to design and test a microfluidic device to solve a real-world problem of their choosing. Includes exercises in written and oral communication and team building.http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/Health-Sciences-and-Technology/HST-410JSpring-2007/CourseHome/index.htmFreeman, DennisAranyosi, AlexanderGray, Martha2007-11-26T11:24:07-05:00HST.410J6.07Jen-USElectrical Engineering and Computer ScienceHealth Services/Allied Health/Health Sciences, Generalplasma bondingcoulter countercasting PDMScomputer simulation of neural behaviorcytometry techniquesexperimental designcell trapsMATLAB data analysislaminar flowmodels of diffusionmicrofabricationdiffusionosmosismicrofluidicscell sortingoptical imaging of cellsrapid prototypinglithographymicrochipscell manipulationHealth Sciences and TechnologyMIT OpenCourseWare http://ocw.mit.eduContent within individual OCW courses is (c) by the individual authors unless otherwise noted.

For further information see http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/web/terms/terms/index.htmThe course serves as an introduction to the theory and practice behind many of today's communications systems. 6.450 forms the first of a two-course sequence on digital communication. The second class, 6.451, is offered in the spring. Topics covered include: digital communications at the block diagram level, data compression, Lempel-Ziv algorithm, scalar and vector quantization, sampling and aliasing, the Nyquist criterion, PAM and QAM modulation, signal constellations, finite-energy waveform spaces, detection, and modeling and system design for wireless communication.http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/Electrical-Engineering-and-Computer-Science/6-450Fall-2006/CourseHome/index.htmGallager, RobertZheng, Lizhong2008-01-14T12:13:10-05:006.450en-USElectrical Engineering and Computer ScienceElectrical, Electronic and Communications Engineering Technology/Techniciancommunication system designdetectionfinite-energy waveform spacessignal constellationsQAM modulationPAM modulationNyquist criterionaliasingsamplingvector quantizationscalar quantizationLempel-Ziv algorithmdata compressiondigital communicationMIT OpenCourseWare http://ocw.mit.eduContent within individual OCW courses is (c) by the individual authors unless otherwise noted.
