. "Multidisciplinary applications in telecommunications"@en . . "6" . "Objectives and Contextualisation\nA telecommunication system is composed of three main blocks: transmitter, communication channel and receiver, through which the exchange of information between the source (transmitter) and destination (receiver) is carried out. In previous courses the student has acquired the knowledge and tools for the design and analysis of these blocks, typically in an independent manner. This course intends to provide an end-to-end view focusing on a particular application of telecommunications, such as satellite-based positioning. For this purpose, the course will address in detail the so-called global navigation satellite systems (GNSS), among which we can find the American GPS system and the European Galileo system.\n\nThe objectives of this course are:\n\nTo know the fundamentals of satellite-based positioning.\nTo know the GNSS system architecture.\nTo know the signals adopted by GNSS systems, putting emphasis on GPS and Galileo.\nTo understand the operation of a GNSS receiver at signal processing and observable level.\nTo be able to solve the user's position based on the observables provided by a GNSS receivers.\nTo understand the operation of a GNSS.\nTo process both real signals and GNSS observables, and to analyze the results.\nTo know the fundamentals of precise positioning.\nTo know the possible applications of GNSS systems.\n\nCompetences\nCommunication\nDevelop personal attitude.\nDevelop personal work habits.\nDevelop thinking habits.\nLearn new methods and technologies, building on basic technological knowledge, to be able to adapt to new situations.\nResolve problems with initiative and creativity. Make decisions. Communicate and transmit knowledge, skills and abilities, in awareness of the ethical and professional responsibilities involved in a telecommunications engineer's work.\nWork in a team.\nLearning Outcomes\n\"Reason inductively and deductively; i.e. infer general conclusions from private observations, and take on board the general concepts covered in other courses for specific applications.\"\nApply conceptual, theoretical and practical telecommunication tools, as well as those of telecommunication systems and services to the development and exploitation of applications in a variety of different areas.\nCommunicate efficiently, orally and in writing, knowledge, results and skills, both professionally and to non-expert audiences.\nCommunicate solutions to problems in a thorough and concise manner. Write using formal mathematical language.\nCritically evaluate the work done.\nDemonstrate a pragmatic and flexible attitude for efficient implementation of telecommunications in developing and operating in areas of various kinds.\nDevelop critical thinking and reasoning.\nDevelop curiosity and creativity.\nDevelop independent learning strategies.\nEfficiently use ICT for the communication and transmission of ideas and results.\nManage available time and resources.\nMathematically formulate a problem from the basis of a descriptive statement.\nWork autonomously.\nWork cooperatively.\n\nContent\n1. Introduction to GNSS systems\n\nMotivation.\nArquitecture and segments.\nApplications.\n2.

"The fast-paced technological evolution and advances in globalisation have made the information and communication technologies (ICTs) present in almost all of our personal and also professional activities. The union of concepts such as information technology, internet and telecommunications is a reality demanding the knowledge of professionals capable of working in all three areas. For this reason, the UAB offers a double degree in which students can receive integrated training leading to two diplomas in five years.\n\nStudents of the double degree in Computer Engineering (Specialisation in Information Technologies) + Telecommunication Systems Engineering will receive training in both the subjects belonging to each degree and interdisciplinary training to help successfully face the professional challenges of the ICTs and acquire a highly valued versatility with which to stand out from other professionals in the sector.\n\nThe close relation with advanced technological and research centres of both local and international prestige, and with leading companies from the ICT sector, facilitates student participation in high quality work placements and a successful entry into the labour market."@en . . . .
