Program Educational Objectives (PEOs):
M. Tech. in Communication Systems Program, graduates will be able to:
PEO 1. Apply concepts of Statistics, Linear Algebra and Residue Calculus in Communication, Signal processing and Electromagnetics domain
PEO 2. Solve issues in real world communication sectors, and develop feasible and viable communication systems.
PEO 3. Inculcate effective communication skills , practice effective team work, professional ethics and pursue research.
Program Outcomes (POs):
M. Tech. Communication Systems graduates will be able to:
PO 1. Scholarship and Knowledge The courses expose students to a deep understanding of Channel Encoding and Decoding, Modulation and Demodulation, Radio Frequency Conversion, Channel Transmission, and performance extraction.
PO 2.Critical Thinking The course involves understanding of the physical issues in communications and its abstraction to mathematical models, followed by engineering approximation leading to a viable algorithm.
PO 3.Problem Solving The course involves mathematical modelling of communication events including noise, devices and systems that are different across various channels and hence is intensively problem oriented.
PO 4.Research Skills The approach in this course has been to provide a strong exposure to fundamentals with full mathematical rigor in Signal Processing, Communications and Electromagnetics followed by an exposure to specific courses in state of art in wireless, wireline and optical communications. This provides a strong background to engage in developments in these communication systems.
PO 5.Usage of Modern Tools The student is exposed to Numerical and Algorithmic procedures in the theoretical courses with a strong lab component using Matlab environment, Embedded Environment and Electromagnetic Flow solver tools like HFSS and FEKO.
PO 6.Multidisciplinary Work As a part of the mini project, major project or internship the student is exposed to interfacing for communications with real world sensors, transmission of speech and complex images from cameras all of which require multidisciplinary work.
PO 7.Project management and finance As a part mini and major project the student learns to draw up list of tasks and time lines for those tasks an essential ingredient in project management. Further in the projects the student learns the value of simulation and emulation, thereby understanding that a cost effective hardware realization is possible only through simulations.
PO 8.Communication Skills As a part of progress reports on mini and major projects the student is expected to develop his skills in written and oral presentation of the work that he has accomplished.
PO 9.Life Long Learning Exposure to prerequisite maths and a mathematically rigorous approach to communication theory will provide him with all the necessary background to pursue a career in any field of communications going forward in his career.
PO 10.Ethical Practice and Social Responsibility In the preparation of reports and in the process of accessing and understanding journal papers, the student gets to understand the importance of acknowledging the works of prior state of the art and peer reviews. This ethical practice is built at this stage.
PO 11.Independent and Reflective Learning In the individual lab assignments, miniproject and major project tasks the student is exposed to thought provoking issues in communication system practice that need association of theoretical learning with real issues in a communication environment.
Program Specific Outcomes (PSOs):
M. Tech. in Communication Systems graduates will be able to:
PSO 1. Use the knowledge of signal processing, communications, networks and Electromagnetics to simulate algorithms in virtual environments and implement them on embedded platforms.
PSO 2.Critically and systematically integrate knowledge to analyze, estimate solve complex problems and meet the challenges in the communication domain
