This course deals with cellular communication systems, the structure of cell phone systems, access technology, wireless communication radio, fading issues, diversity, link analysis, CDMA diffuse spectrum system, physical/data link/network layers, traffic control, mobile network structure and 3rd generation mobile communication systems.
This course is meant to provide a strong foundation for graduate study and research in the area of communications. The main objective of this course is to fortify the understanding of advanced communication theories required to design and analyze digital communication systems, especially for memory channels
This course focuses on advanced techniques for control, modeling and performance analysis of high-speed communication networks and the Internet. Traffic, network queueing, quality of services, various network algorithms and protocols are quantitatively analyzed and discussed.
Video compression is very important and widely deployed in Smart Phones, DTV/UHDTV, Digital Cameras/Camcorders, etc. This class aims at providing students with a comprehensive overview of the principles and algorithms employed in image and video compression. A particular course objective is an in-depth understanding of the rationale behind the frame-based video coding such as H.264/AVC (Advanced Video Coding) as well as HEVC (High-Efficiency Video Coding). (Prerequisite: EE432)

The primary objective of this course is to discuss what NeuroImaging methods are available to study the brain. The focus of the course will be on modern tools capable of whole-brain imaging (mostly MRI), but we will also discuss non-MRI techniques as well. As part of the term project, students will be asked to propose novel acquisition and/or analysis method that is likely to facilitate our ability to understand the brain.
This course provides basic theory and techniques for the representation and processing of digital video. Topics include digital video formats, video spatiotemporal Sampling, 2-D/3-D motion estimation, motion segmentation, digital video filtering, video enhancement, video compression, and digital video system. In addition to the theory, students suppose to participate in experiments that are related to the above topics.
