At the end of this course, students will understand the radio frequency mobile wireless environment, the common wireless systems, and the regulatory aspects related to deployment of the wireless infrastructure. (prerequisites: An undergraduate/graduate course in communication systems (such as 0609-534) and current facility with technical mathematics and calculus) Credit 4

0614-764 Telecom Systems

The fundamental principles that govern the communication of information are introduced. At the end of this course students will understand signal spectral analysis and the principles of digital and analog modulation formats. Topics in the course are spectral analysis techniques, modulation schemes, and noise and bit error rates. (Calculus and differential equations) Class 4, Credit 4

0614-774 Wan/Lan Planning & Design

This course teaches the art and science of metropolitan and wide area network design for both modern delay (data) networks and traditional blocking (voice) networks; the greatest emphasis is on modern delay networks. Both qualitative and quantitative approaches are used as the student progresses through the network analysis, architecture and network design processes. An advanced WAN Fiber Optic design tool, such as OPNET Transport Planner is utilized in a required graduate project.(Prerequisites: 0614-720 and 0614-722) This course is not appropriate for graduate RIT MSTET credit if the student has completed the undergraduate RIT course Network Planning and Design (0614-574) with an A or B grade within the past five years. Class 4, Credit 4

0614-780 Telecom Policy & Issues

This course provides an introductory overview of domestic and international telecommunications policy and issues with special emphasis on domestic policy, regulation and law. Current issues, trends and standards are also investigated. This course is not appropriate if the student has completed the RIT undergraduate course, Introduction to Policy and Issues (0614-480), with an A or B or an equivalent course at another university in the past five years. Class 4, Credit 4

0614-783 Telecom Transmission Sys

The fundamental principles that govern wired and wireless transmission systems are introduced. At the end of this course students will be able to apply transmission system theory to the analysis and design of copper, fiber-optic, and wireless transmission systems. Topics in the course are Transmission Lines, link budgets, satellite communications, and an introduction to cellular engineering and mobile radio transmission. (Calculus, differential equations, and an undergraduate course in electronic communications systems that teaches the concepts of modulation and demodulation and the electronic components in transmitters and receivers) Class 4, Credit 4

0614-832 Fiber Optic Telecom Netw

This course is focused on the operation of the elements of fiber optic telecommunications networks and the structure and operation of optical telecommunications networks. Students will be able to design optical networks to meet specified capacity, flexibility, and reliability requirements at the end of the course.(Fiber Optic Telecommunications Technology 0614-732) Lecture 4, Credit 4

0614-836 Next Generation Networks

The course provides graduate TET students the opportunity to research and report on "Next Generation Networks." The course consists of professor led discussions on one type of Next Generation Network followed by each student researching two additional Next Generation Network types. A case study approach is utilized. After completing the research and written paper regarding one's selected topic/case, each student will present to all other students in the class. As a result, every student will not only benefit from their own research of two topics/cases but also be informed of other Next Generation Network issues by other students. (Students with an engineering technology or engineering BS degree and/or graduate students who have completed ALL core MSTET requirements are welcome) Class 4, Credit 4

0614-890 Grad Thesis/project Plan

This course is a ten week preparation that will allow the student to develop a detailed description and plan of work along with preliminary data and research. The objective of this preparation is to give focus to the proposed thesis/project. Student will conduct literature reviews, prepared bibliographies, identify and plan methodologies, identify deliverables, prepare schedules, become familiar with report formats and literacy guides, and gain a clear understanding of the expectation of faculty and the discipline.
