ECE 456
Fall 2016 Part of Term 1
Aug 22-Dec 7
Credit: 4 hours.
Engineering aspects of space-based navigation systems, such as the Global Positioning System (GPS). Engineering and physical principles on which GPS operates, including orbital dynamics, electromagnetic wave propagation in a plasma, signal encoding, receiver design, error analysis, and numerical methods for obtaining a navigation solution. GPS as a case study for performing an end-to-end analysis of a complex engineering system. Laboratory exercises focus on understanding receiver design and developing a MATLAB-based GPS receiver.
Same as AE 456. 4 undergraduate hours. 4 graduate hours. Prerequisite: ECE 329 and ECE 310 or AE 352 and AE 353.
