We strive to answer your inquiries within three working days.
Please address questions regarding courses or the content of exams directly to the responsible teacher within the framework of the respective course so that they can be answered transparently for all students concerned.
After the lectures students are familar with the basic concepts of information theory. By understanding quantities such as entropy, joint entropy or mutual information, they can evaluate the theoretical limits for data compression and data transmission for simple but particularly important cases. They are also able to apply concrete schemes for source and channel coding in practice. By knowing the theoretical limits, they can assess the efficiency of these methods. With regard to channel coding, the students are familiar with both common block coding and convolutional coding schemes and can use these error correction schemes after the Exercises in Matlab. The students are also familiar with the principles of Turbo codes and LDPC codes.
Please note that lecture material such as supplementary sets of slides, the collection of exercises or Matlab example files are made available via the TU-Ilmenau's Moodle system. To access this material, you should register for the Moodle course.
