Mobilkommunikation

Due to the recent recommendations in the context of Covid-19 we have to defer the start of the lectures of the course on Mobile Communications to 21st April 2020. All the lectures for the various chapters of the course are pre-recorded and all the material is online including the videos, lecture slides and exercises. We suggest you to complete the lectures and exercises as planned in the schedule below. In case of any questions regarding the contents or other issues feel free to contact any of us, in particular for the exercises on Fundamentals, Multiple Access, Mobile Telecommunications and Security you may contact Arne Bochem (arne.bochem@cs.uni-goettingen.de) and for the exercises on Satellite, WLAN, Network Layer, Adhoc Networks and Transport Layer you may contact Caglar Kaya (kaya@ibr.cs.tu-bs.de).

All lectures are prerecorded and no physical lectures will be given. Exercises will take place as web-based conference as indicated below.

This course teaches knowledge and algorithms in the field of mobile communications. Beginning with telecommunication basics, the course further details multiplexing techniques and media access control approaches. Existing system from the telecommunications and wireless LAN field are discussed and protocols such as mobile IP and transport-layer protocols for wireless communications are presented.

The slides are available as PDF files and are widely based on the course 'Mobilkommunikation' by Prof. Dr. J. Schiller (FU Berlin) and contain extensions based on the course 'Mobilkommunikation' by Prof. Dr. M. Zitterbart (Universität Karlsruhe). We would like to thank both original authors for the material.

This course is a collaboration with Prof. Dr. Dieter Hogrefe from the Telematics Group at Georg-August-Universität Göttingen. Please find further details here.

This courses is mainly based on video recordings to self-study at your convenience. For a successful learning process it is imperative, that you study the contents of the video recordings yourself. Furthermore, exercises will be help regularly to apply the gained knowledge. Intensive preparations are important.

Please find slides, exercise sheets and video recordings in this table:

The material is only available to registered attendees. In order to register, you need either an IBR POSIX account or a self-activated IBR-y-account. Afterwards you can login to this site.
