Course Materials
|
Purpose: To allow better concentration in lecture by reducing
note-taking pressure and to provide a study-aid before (unfortunately
not this year) and after lecture.
|
|
Disclaimers: (a) I may not follow these
slides exactly in class. (b) Students are responsible
for what I say in class. (c) Reading these slides is
not a substitute for attending lecture. |
|
This course is mainly based on the book
Mobile Communications.
|
|
The slides of the course text book are available at the
book’s web site. I’ll mainly
modify and follow the book’s slides. You can download my lecture slides
presented in the class after (unfortunately) the lecture from the
course’s web site. |
