EE 379B follows EE 379A and focuses on state-of-the-art data communication system theory and design, particularly systems with multiple users and dimensions (MIMO over parallel antennas or wires). The focus is on multi-user physical-layer channels like multiple access, broadcast, and interference channels, their capacity regions and designs to achieve any points therein. Examples include the latest cellular, Wi-Fi, wireline, cable, and other systems that stress fundamental transmission limits. Topics include system design, particularly physical-layer modulation/coding analysis and optimization through various artificial intelligence and optimization methods for multi-dimensional channels. Included are methods to design and adapt both transmitter and receiver to variable channels.
