Contact Sessions for Topic 10 Goals of the present exercise problems are to Acquire the physical understanding of small-scale fading (problem 1) Be able to characterize small-scale fading mathematically (problem 2) During the contact sessions, you are solving the exercise problems by referring to relevant parts of the course books. A limited number of course books are available in the room. encouraged to discuss with other students and teachers. asked to contact teachers once your solutions are ready. If you prepare exercise solutions in an electronic format (recommended), upload the solution to MyCourses first and then contact teachers. asked to propose points for your ready solutions to the teachers. not given exercise points without discussing with teachers. The discussions MUST happen in the contact sessions. reminded that the threshold deadline topic 9-12 exercises and the deadline of all exercises returns is December 15 th.
