Learning Outcomes

After completion of the lectures in this module, students master the basic mathematical concepts and methods that are widely used in the analysis and optimization of modern communication systems. Although the methods are relatively universal applicable, the focus of the analysis is on mobile communications systems. The lectures will combine the mathematical precision with examples. This should underpin the importance of mathematical methods when designing modern communication systems. The acquired knowledge will enable students to better understand complex interdependencies in such systems. This understanding is essential in the design and operation of efficient, reliable and secure communication systems.

Content

The learning content includes mathematical methods that are used to solve many real-world problems in diverse areas in science and engineering. As concrete applications that are in the focus of the lectures, we cite interference reduction in spread spectrum and MIMO systems, adaptive beamforming, PAPR reduction in OFDM systems, acoustic source localization with wireless sensor networks, environmental modeling in wireless multi-agent systems. In particular, a special attention is attached to the following topics: basic principles of (functional) analysis that are relevant in the design of modern communications systems, fundamentals of matrix analysis, fundamentals of (convex) optimization theory, projection methods, principles of convex relaxation, algorithm design, convergence properties.
