UFMFKN-15-3 Mobile and Wireless Communication Assignment - University of the West of England, UK
Purpose of the Assignment - This is a semester assignment in which the students are required to work in groups to carry out a small research on mobile communication system. This assignment is a blend of research and current industry trends. This assignment is going to give an opportunity for students to:
1. Learn a comprehensive understanding of principles of Mobile and Wireless Communications
2. Apply concepts of cell design under technical constraints
3. Demonstrate the use of advanced knowledge to solve basic and advance wireless link design problems in the modern telecommunication system
4. Simulate an end to end wireless communication link using MATLAB programming and Simulink;
5. Understanding the commercial, economic, ethical and security risks in the cellular networks
Introduction - This coursework aims to explore the latest and up-to-date advancements in the field of mobile and wireless communication, its limitations, your suggestions and expectations for providing solutions to the identified problems, competing standards and many other issues. The students are required to model and implement a mobile communication link using MATLAB/SIMULINK. This is a group assignment in which students are required to submit a 3000-word group report. However, it is mandatory for each student to submit a 500-word individual reflection.
Resources - Matlab Communications Tool Box and Communication & RF Block set available on PCs in Laboratory 1.2.
Group Task - This group task is a small research-type exercise where you will select a project from a given list of topics or you may suggest your own project by discussing and confirming with the module leader. The projects include:
1. An up to date literature review of the selected topic. You should try to cite related recently journal and conference papers.
2. In your research, you should investigate the effects of risks, such as health and safety, commercial, and security due to mobile communication system.
3. Designing a model solution of chosen problem in the selected project. Validating the solution with the help of a software simulation study. The simulation tools and platform is your choice.
4. Concluding remarks and future direction of the projected.
5. Demonstration of the project.
