Radio network planning. Multiantenna techniques. Multiuser detection. Packet and Internet access over wireless. Overview of CDMA2000. Prerequisite: EECE General Information This course covers in detail the UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System) cellular system. UMTS is the third generation (3G) wireless standard that will follow GSM. It is based on CDMA accessing and is capable of offering a wide range of applications with data rates up to 2 Mbps. The UMTS system was successfully deployed in Japan in 2002 and is being deployed in most of the central European countries since the end of In the Middle East, Etisalat launched the first UMTS network in UAE in December It is expected that most GSM networks all over the world will be upgraded to the UMTS standard in the next 5 years. The course starts by introducing the GSM cellular system with its GPRS and EDGE extensions. The limitations of the GSM system are then pointed out as a motivation for the development of the UMTS standard. The bulk of the course is spent on UMTS with emphasis on physical layer design, multimedia and data services, radio network planning, and various enhancement techniques. 4.

Enhanced Uplink Data Channel (EUDCH) 14. Overview of CDMA Assessment The final course grade is based on our best assessment of your understanding of the course material. The assessment is based on your participation, a midterm exam, a final exam, in addition to project work. Students will have to decide for either the guided EECE 645 The UMTS Cellular System Course Syllabus Prof. Dawy 3/5

4 project option or the free-style project option. The aim of the free-style project option is to give the interested students the possibility to apply concepts from the course on a research or development problem related to UMTS. Participation 5% Midterm Exam 25% Final exam 45% Project 25% Participation: This includes class attendance and participation in class activities. You are expected to attend all classes. You are responsible for the work done and for the announcements made during your absence. The participation grade will be based on the statistics collected from taking the class attendance. The class attendance need not always be taken. You get 5 for less than two absences, 4 for two absences, 3 for 3 absences, 2 for 4 absences, 1 for 5 absences, and 0 for more than 5 absences. In case you have a valid excuse for not attending class, you have to send the instructor an before class to explain your case Examinations: The midterm exam will be tentatively held on Monday April 4, 2005 at 18:30 in the evening. To the midterm exam, one double-sided hand-written A4 sheet is allowed. The final exam will be held during the final examination period (between May 30, 2005 and June 14, 2005). To the final exam, two double-sided handwritten A4 sheets are allowed Problem Sets: Problem sets will be given that cover the main topics of the course. The problems will not be graded and, thus, no solutions should be submitted. Solutions of the problems will be provided and some of the problems will be solved in class or in optional tutorial sessions. Students are encouraged to try first to solve the problems on their own before seeing the solution Project: Two project options are available. Each student should select one of the two options. Students are not allowed to work on the same project in multiple courses without previous coordination with the instructors of the courses. Guided project option: It is composed of four related assignments which aim at simulating and analyzing certain aspects of the UMTS cellular system. The assignments will involve Matlab programming and will be given throughout the semester. Students can work in groups of at most two and the same group should work on all assignments. The solution of the assignments should be typed and submitted in hard and soft copies including all developed code. The code should be well documented and should be testable. Groups are expected to work independently on the solutions and any copying will be treated seriously. Free-style project option: It involves working on a relevant research or development problem related to the UMTS cellular system. Students can work in groups of at most three. Students will have to submit a proposal, a progress report, and a final report. Each group should meet with the instructor before EECE 645 The UMTS Cellular System Course Syllabus Prof. Dawy 4/5

5 the proposal submission deadline to get his approval on their proposal. Students who decide to submit a proposal decide at the same time to select the free-style project option and cannot switch back to the guided project option. Project proposal (due on Friday at 17:00): The project proposal must include a project title, a brief motivation, a clear and brief description of what you plan to do, and a list of at least 3 relevant references. You should indicate why you think the cited references are relevant and you should present a list of the main goals to be achieved. The proposal should not exceed 2 pages and should be submitted as soft copy via . Progress report (due on Monday at 17:00): The progress report must include any modifications to the project goals (with reasoning), a summary of the work done including some results and encountered difficulties, and a detailed plan of the work to be done including a time table and task allocation over the group members. The progress report should not exceed 5 pages and should be submitted as soft copy via . Final report (due on Tuesday in class): The final report must include the main project outcomes. It should have the same format as an IEEE paper with abstract, introduction, references, and conclusion sections in addition to supporting sections that describe your approach, analysis, simulations, and/or results. Groups that work on projects that include software development must submit a soft copy of all developed software in addition to a written documentation in an appendix at the end of the report. The software submitted should be testable and, thus, user friendly. Students are requested to submit a CD that contains their final report, all collected references, all developed code, and any other relevant material. The final report should be submitted in hard copy together with the CD on Tuesday at 11:00 for students in Section 1 and at 15:30 for students in Section 2. The final report should be pages. The final project grade depends on the project idea, the level of detail and technical content of the report, originality of the work, writing style, references, and fulfillment of the goals set. Project ideas: UMTS radio network planning demonstration tool; Interoperator spectrum sharing for UMTS; GSM/UMTS base station co-siting; Spectrum allocation and case study for UMTS in Lebanon; Soft handover and power control demonstration tool; Software defined radio; Traffic models for UMTS services; WLAN-UMTS interoperation; Multihop transmission in UMTS; Multiuser detection at mobile stations; Distributed directional antennas; etc. EECE 645 The UMTS Cellular System Course Syllabus Prof. Dawy 5/5
