52340S Communication Networks I

Goal: The aim is to present the fundamentals of the structure of digital data transmission systems. Operation adapted according to the telephone network also considered. Technical implementation and application of the common data and local networks are discussed.
Contents: Data link control, networking techniques, circuit switching, packet switching, radio and satellite networks, local area networks, asynchronous transfer mode, integrated services digital network and broadband integrated services digital network.
Realization: Two hours of lectures per week, lectured in English. Written final test.
Literature: Savo G. Glisic Advanced Wireless Networks: 4G Technologies ISBN: 0-470-01593-4.

  • OPNET Lab 1: TCP Throughput

From OPNET lab manual to accompany Data and Computer Communications.

  • OPNET Lab 2: Switches versus Hubs

From OPNET lab manual to accompany Data and Computer Communications.

  • OPNET Lab 3: Wireless LAN

The purpose of this lab is to study the RTS/CTS mechanism in the IEEE 802.11 MAC sublayer. In the lab, performance of DCF without RTS/CTS and with RTS/CTS mechanism in independent Basic Service Set (BSS) scenario has been compared.

 

52374S Communication Networks II

Goal: The aim is to help the student to understand the basic principles of networking by providing a balance between the description of existing networks and the development of analytical tools. The descriptive material is used to illustrate the underlying concepts, and the analytical material is used to generate a deeper and more precise understanding of the concepts.
Contents: Layered network architecture, Point-to-Point protocols and links, delay models in data networks, multiaccess communication, routing in data networks, flow control, introduction to queuing theory, simple Markovian birth-death queuing models.
Realization: Three hours of lectures per week. Lectures are in English. Written final test.
Literature: Savo G. Glisic Advanced Wireless Networks: 4G Technologies ISBN: 0-470-01593-4.

In this course OPNET is used to allow students to examine queueing models and multiaccess techniques.
