List of Video Engineering Classes Off Campus, Spring 2012

EE 531: Communication Theory I Hrs: 3
Instructor: Dr. In Soo Ahn
Optimum filtering; analogue and digital communication; detection theory.
Prerequisite: EE 302

EE 532: Communication Theory II Hrs: 3
Instructor: Dr. In Soo Ahn
Digital communication systems; modulation; demodulation; maximum likelihood detection; trade-offs between bandwidth and power; bit error rate; channel coding techniques: block coding, convolutional coding, and iterative decoding; mutual information; channel capacity; trelllis-coded modulation; synchronization:
 Prerequisite: EE 531

EE 550:  Electromagnetic Theory Hrs: 3
Instructor: Dr. Prasad Shastry
Time-varying electric and magnetic fields; Maxwell’s equations; plane waves in conducting and dielectric media; transmission lines; wave guides; antennas.  Prerequisite: EE 381

EE 551:  Radio Frequency Circuits and Systems Hrs: 3             
Instructor: Dr. Prasad Shastry
Review of transmission lines, impedance matching and transformations, S-parameters, passive R.F. junctions, R.F. amplifier design, R.F. systems, and front end design. Prerequisites: EE 205, 206.

EE 568: VHDL: Digital System Design Hrs: 3
Instructor: Dr. Yufeng Lu
A structured guide to the modeling of the design of digital systems using VHDL, a hardware description language. VHDL is designed to fill a number of needs in the design process. It allows description of the structure of a system and the specification of the function using familiar programming language forms. As a result it allows the design of a system to be simulated and synthesized. Prerequisite: EE 201 or equivalent.

EE 630 Random Variables and Signals Hrs: 3
Dr. In Soo Ahn
Correlation functions; power-density spectra; transmission of random signals through linear and non-linear systems; linear mean square estimation. Prerequisite: EE 302 or graduate standing

EE 640 - Dynamic Systems Analysis (3 hours)
Advanced techniques for analysis of electrical, mechanical, and electromechanical systems. State function concepts are emphasized with applications for determining state equations, system stability, and control. Prerequisite: EE 301 or equivalent. Completion of a senior- or graduate-level signals and systems course with a minimum grade of C.

EE 642: Advanced Control Systems Hrs: 3
Instructor: Dr. Winfred Anakwa
Continuation of EE 640. Prerequisite: EE 640

EE 643: Optimal Control Systems Hrs: 3
Instructor: Dr. In Soo Ahn
Analysis and design of multivariable control systems: stability, observability and controllability, deterministic/stochastic linear optimal regulator and observers, and multivariable stability robustness. Prerequisite: EE 540 or permission of instructor

EE 651:  Advanced Electrodynamics Hrs: 3
Instructor: Dr. Prasad Shastry
Continuation of EE 550. Special theory of relativity; plasma dynamics. Prerequisites: EE 540, 550.
