S-72.333 
Postgraduate Course in Radio Communications 
5-8 credits

Spring 2004

Course is based on the following material:

  • Book 1: 802.11 Wireless Networks, The definitive guide, Matthew S. Gast, O'Reilly 2002. 
  • Book 2: OFDM Wireless LANs: A Theorethical and Practical Guide, Juha Heiskala, John Terry, Sams Publishing 2002.

  • Book 3: Wireless Informations Networks, Chapter 11, Kaveh Pahlavan & Allen H. Levesque, John Wiley & Sons, inc 1995.
  • Book 4: 802.11 Security, Chapter 2, Bruce Potter & Bob Fleck, O'Reilly 2002.
You can ask these books from Communications Laboratory's secretary Sari Kiveliφ, room E218

and

  • Various articles in journals and conferences.
Articles can be found on web http://ieeexplore.ieee.org
You can have access to those articles from HUT work stations. Here are proposed publications for each topic, but other publications or web references are also acceptable, in some topics even recommended.
