Learning Outcomes

This module introduces students into advanced topics in wireless communication systems, aiming to empower them to contribute to research projects during their upcoming master thesis. The Module covers several enhancements towards 6G in the physical and MAC layers which need support from the network and higher layers. It provides a fundamental introduction into multiple-input multiple-output and adaptive transmission for multiple mobile devices and the increasingly sophisticated coordination of base stations and access points in cellular systems and WiFi. Finally, presentations by project leaders will be offered who introduce the students into their recent research topics and inspire them to contribute to this research during their master thesis. Topics will change over time, and cover e.g. massive MIMO, distributed MIMO, fronthaul with flexible functional split, fiber-wireless integration, efficient use of new spectrum at millimeter, THz and optical frequencies (LiFi).
