ECE U538: Real-Time Systems
4.00 Credits
Northeastern University
Retired August 31, 2004. Introduces the design and analysis of real-time systems from a top-down perspective. Covers general principles and practices, types of real-time systems, specification of system requirements, techniques for resource allocation and reservation, and features of system software to support application development. Also involves implementation and simulation of one ingredient in a real-time system, such as a scheduler.

ECE U572: Communications Systems
4.00 Credits
Northeastern University
Introduces basic concepts of digital communication over additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channels. Reviews frequency domain signal analysis through treatment of noiseless analog communication. Reviews foundations of stochastic processes including stationarity, ergodicity, autocorrelation, power spectrum, and filtering. Provides an introduction to lossless and lossy source coding and introduces Huffman and Lempel-Ziv algorithms. Introduces optimal quantization and PCM and DPCM systems. Examines geometric representation of signals and signal space concepts, principles of optimum receiver design for AWGN channels, correlation and matched filter receivers, and probability of error analysis for binary and M-ary signaling through AWGN channels, and performance of ASK, PSK, FSK, and QAM signaling schemes. If time permits, also covers digital PAM transmission through band-limited AWGN channels, zero ISI condition, system design in the presence of channel distortion, and equalization techniques.
