JOB DESCRIPTION

MSc MOBILE COMMUNICATIONS

Few people will have remained oblivious to the explosive growth in digital speech/audio/video and data transmission over the past few years. The long term future of digital communications lies with the use of mobile, as opposed to fixed, terminals. The aim of the course is to reflect recent significant advances in mobile communications in the wider context of the rapidly developing digital communications industry. Students will gain competence in the theory and practice of Mobile Digital Technology such that they will be able to design and develop appropriate software/hardware and have an appreciation of more general network planning considerations involved in mobile and wireless communications systems. They will thus be able to take advantage of the undoubted long-term employment prospects in these areas.

This is an advanced MSc course in the rapidly expanding area of Mobile Communications and Networks. This course is concerned with the concepts, applications, design, development and deployment of mobile communication systems and networks. Students will develop a detailed knowledge and critical understanding of the core skills in mobile communications and networks and use a significant range of principal and specialist skills, techniques and practices in the domain of mobile communications and networks.

This is a hardware-oriented course in mobile communications and networks and is aimed directly at electrical engineering graduates. This course is concerned with the use and application of engineering principles in the specification, design, development and deployment of mobile communications.
