Laboratory manual department of electrical & computer engineering university of central florida eel 4515 digital communications revised august 2004.
Zhihua Qu, Welcomes you! On behalf of our faculty, staff and students, I would like to welcome you to Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) at UCF. The ECE's vision is to offer the best undergraduate education in electrical and computer engineering, to achieve national and international prominence in selected areas of graduate study and research, and to foster partnerships and contribute to technological and economical advances in the State of Florida, the nation, and the world.
Read the whole welcome message. Engineering 1, Room 471 Students develop a solid understanding for analysis of communication signals in time domain and frequency domain. Students learn to design and simulate many types of communication circuits, and then assemble, measure, and evaluate the circuits using laboratory instruments. Additionally, an Analog Filter Design course is offered for students to develop expertise in that aspect of signal processing. Students develop competency in measurement science by utilizing modern advanced instruments, which are similar to instruments presently being used by engineers in industry. Courses Supported EEL-3552 Analog and Digital Communication Fundamentals EEL-4512 Communication Systems Laboratory Equipment, 12 Stations, each equipped with: Tektronix DPO 4034 Digital Phosphor Oscilloscope, 350 MHz, 4 Channel Tektronix AFG 3022 Dual Channel Arbitrary Function Generator, 25 MHz Tektronix DMM 4050 6 ½ Digit Precision Multimeter Agilent E3630A Triple Output DC Power Supply Global PB-60 Breadboard Dell Optiplex 960 Computer Additionally for EEL-4512, 2 Stations are equipped with: Emona tims TMS-301 Modeling System.
