This course aim at giving the student the tools to analyze and design antennas for both base stations and mobile terminals of cellular communication systems.

AIM OF THE IS THE DESCRIPTION THE CHARACTERISTICS OF TELECOMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS, FROM THE TELEPHONE NETWORK TO DATA PACKET/SWITCH NETWORK TO WIRELESS NETWORKS. AMONG THE ISSUES THAT WILL BE ADDRESSED, THE PERFORMANCE EVALUATION IN TERMS OF QUALITY, SECURITY AND COST OF SERVICE WILL BE DISCUSSED.

the rules for the quality is managed toISO 9000.
study of ISO 9000 and ISO standards of 9001 allows aware as, approach process, they can be fully defined in the philosophy of the PDCA (plan, do, check act), only if this protocol is complete and in definition of the field of scientific field of the "measure ....." they regard to the stage of check.
the study of how you can, in the application of rules, procedures to determine the check, bearing in mind the spread of electronic applications in the world of work, it is the objective of the course. another goal of course is to provide students first language, with the precise definition of nomenclature (ISO 9000) and then the elements of operational design as, according to the present (ISO 9001) with the purpose of allowing in their professional activities and development of a right placement of any initiative in terms of quality.

To present a series of practice exercitation to the students is the aim of the course. The laboratory experiences allow to the students to became confidence with base instrumentations always present in an electronic or measurements laboratory. The course is principally practice so after a brief introductive theory phase in which are explained of the exercitations and instrumentation presented in laboratory, the students has to attempt the laboratory facing autonomously each experience.

THIS COURSE GIVES THEORETICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL BASIS FOR THE CHARACTERIZATION OF MICROWAVE AND RADIOFREQUENCY CIRCUITS AND ANTENNAS. A PART OF THE COURSE WILL BE DEVOTED TO MEASUREMENTS IN GUIDED STRUCTURES, IN PARTICULAR THE STUDENT WILL BE INTRODUCED TO MEASUREMENT OF FREQUENCY, WAVELENGTH, ATTENUATION, SWR, AND IMPEDANCE. A SECOND PART OF THE COURSE WILL BE DEVOTED TO THE CHARACTERIZATION OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF ANTENNAS: MEASUREMENTS OF GAIN, DIRECTIVITY, RADIATION PATTERN AND POLARIZATION ARE PERFORMED. AT THE END OF THE COURSE THE STUDENT WILL BE ABLE TO PLAN AND PERFORM MICROWAVE EXPERIMENTAL ACTIVITIES, AND TO CHOOSE THE MOST APPROPRIATE EQUIPMENT AND COMPONENTS.

THE COURSE AIMS AT ILLUSTRATING THE MORE RECENT TECHNIQUES FOR MULTIMEDIA SIGNAL PROCESSING. VIDEO SIGNALS AND IMAGES WILL BE ANALYZED IN BOTH BI-DIMENSIONAL AND TRI-DIMENSIONAL CASE. THE COURSE WILL BE ORGANIZED IN TWO PARTS: IN THE FIRST, THE BASICS NEEDED FOR MULTIMEDIA SIGNAL PROCESSING AND PROGRAMMING IN MATLAB WILL BE PRESENTED TO THE STUDENTS. IN THE SECOND PART PRACTICAL EXPERIENCES WILL BE PERFORMED, BOTH IN INDIVIDUAL AND IN GROUP ASSIGNEMENTS, BY USING THE TOOLS AVAILABLE IN THE LAB (KINECT, RENDERING 3D SYSTEMS, STEREO WEBCAM). THE POSSIBILITY TO USE IN THE LAB SYSTEMS FOR ACQUIRING, ELABORATING AND RENDERING MULTIMEDIA CONTENT, WILL ALLOW THE STUDENTS TO EFFICIENTLY PROJECT AND MANAGE A MULTIMEDIA SYSTEM. THE COURSE WILL INCLUDE DEDICATED SEMINARS ON PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS OF MULTIMEDIA SIGNALS SUCH AS E-LEARNING, CINEMA, IP-TV AND MOBILE COMMUNICATIONS.

THIS COURSE BUILDS ON THE BASIC KNOWLEDGE OF COMPUTER NETWORKS FROM ELEMENTS OF INTERNET. IT COVERS FUNDAMENTAL CONCEPTS ON COMMUNICATION PROTOCOLS AND THEIR ARCHITECTURES CURRENTLY USED IN TELECOMMUNICATIONS NETWORKS, PARTICULARLY ON INTERNET. THE COURSE WILL ALSO FOCUS ON DEVELOPPING YOUR SKILLS AS A DESIGNER, ANALYST AND IMPLEMENTOR OF NETWORK SYSTEMS VIA SIMULATION SOFTWARE. TO THIS END, SEVERAL LAB ACTIVITIES WILL BE DEDICATED TO NETWORK SIMULATIONS BY OPEN-SOURCE TOOLS. DURING THE COURSE STUDENTS WILL BE ASSIGNED FEW PROBLEM SETS, WHICH ARE EXPECTED TO BE COMPLETED INDIVIDUALLY.

THE COURSE IS STRUCTURED IN LECTURES ON ESSENTIAL NETWORKING FUNCTIONS OF DATA TRANSFER, TRANSFER CONTROL, NETWORK APPLICATIONS AND PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS. LABORATORY ACTIVITIES WILL COVER THE BASICS OF DISCRETE EVENTS SIMULATOR (NETWORK SIMULATOR 2).

THE COURSE OBJECTIVE IS TO LET THE STUDENT OBTAIN COMPETENCES ON: THE ISSUES RELATED TO THE ACQUISITION AND MANAGEMENT OF BIOMEDICAL EQUIPMENT, AND OF RELEVANT DATA IN THE MANAGEMENT OF HEALTH SYSTEMS; INFORMATION SYSTEMS (ACCOUNTING, MAINTENANCE MANAGEMENT ETC..); TODAY'S STANDARDS ON STORAGE AND TRANSMISSION OF MEDICAL DATA. AT THE END OF THE COURSE, IT IS PREDICTED THAT THE STUDENT WILL ALSO MASTER PROBABILITY MODELS ASSOCIATED TO THE MAINTENANCE OF BIOMEDICAL EQUIPMENT.

KNOWLEDGE ABOUT METHODS AND TECHNOLOGY USED IN BIOMEDICAL FIELD, WITH THE PRESENTATION OF PHYSIOLOGICAL SIGNAL ACQUISITION. KNOWLEDGE ABOUT REGULATORY FRAMEWORK AND ELECTRCAL SAFETY OF MEDICAL DEVICES.
PRACTICAL USE OF MEASUREMENT INSTRUMENTATION AND LABORATORY EXPERIENCES CONCERNING SIGNAL ACQUISITION AND PERFORMANCE AND SAFETY TESTS ON MEDICAL DEVICES.

THE COURSE DEALS WITH THE GENERAL ASPECTS AND MAIN TECHNIQUES OF ENVIROMENTAL REMOTE SENSING.
THE PHYSICAL BASIS OF REMOTE SENSING ARE INTRODUCED: COHERENT AND INCOHERENT RADIATION, ABSORPTION AND SCATTERING PHENOMENA. THE MECHANISM OF INTERACTION OF THE NATURAL RADIATION WITH THE EARTH SURFACE AND THE ATMOSPHERE IN THE MICROWAVE FREQUENCY BAND. THE MAIN SENSORS EMPLOYED IN MICROWAVE RADIOMETRY ARE DESCRIBED. FIELDS OF APPLICATION: ELECTRIC, ELECTRONIC AND TELECOMMUNICATION INDUSTRY.

The course aim is to improve the students' knowledge in digital electronics, from basic components to complex systems. Particular attention will be given to recent applications like FPGAs and ASICs and will be given basic knowledge about current digital communication standards such as USB, Ethernet and LVDS.

Aim of the course is to lead students to get more insight into the
fundamentals of digital systems, gaining knowledge for the basic
functionality and performances they have for different typical
applications. The course is mainly focused on the design of simple digital
electronic systems based on programmable devices and practical experiments
allow students to understand the fundamental working methodology from a
design perspective.
