Master of Science in Telecommunication Engineering

Professionalize yourself to lead the management of information and communication technologies from innovation and improvement of competitiveness

Theory of telecommunication subsystem design

Description
The course provides a comprehensive overview of the design and manufacture of electronic circuits, the development of networks and multimedia systems, and the organization of the Internet and its emerging technologies. Through a theoretical-practical approach, students will learn to design and simulate networks, understand the principles of microelectronics, and explore mobile application programming on Android and iOS. In addition, software models and services that facilitate the interconnection of systems will be addressed. This course lays the foundation for applying this knowledge in the development of practical cases within the degree.

Objectives

The learning objectives that students who take this course must achieve are:

- To know the design and manufacturing process of electronic circuits and integrated circuits, and communication components.

- To know the design and simulation of networks and multimedia content systems.

- To understand and know how to apply the functioning and organization of the Internet, new generation Internet technologies and protocols, component models, intermediary software and services.

The objective is to provide a basis for the correct development of the cases and to deal with those areas of knowledge specific to the degree that cannot be covered by the cases.

3. Programming applications on mobile devices (Android and iOS)

4. Fundamentals of microelectronics

Methodology

The training activities used in the subject are:

- Assimilation of the associated concepts

- Personal work

- Assessment activities

- Laboratory work

Each session is divided into two parts: in the first part the teacher provides the basic knowledge so that the students can research and complete the task. The rest of the session is dedicated to solving the exercises posed. The teacher assists the students who require it to clarify any possible doubts that may arise.

Evaluation

The assessment activities used in the course are, depending on the seminar:

- Group work
- Class participation
- Presentations

Each teacher proposes an exercise to be completed. The same teacher evaluates the exercise based on criteria adapted to the task to be completed. The final grade for the course is calculated as a weighted average of the final grades for each seminar, in proportion to the number of sessions taught. To pass the course, it is necessary to pass each seminar separately.

Evaluation Criteria

The weighting of each module/topic is Topic 1 (4/14), Topic 2 (2/14), Topic 3 (6/14) and Topic 4 (2/14), and it is necessary to pass the evaluation activities of each module.
