Description
Mobile Communication is the use of technology that allows us to communicate with others in different locations without the use of any physical connection (wires or cables). Mobile communication makes our life easier, and it saves time and effort.
This course will provide an introduction cellular communication systems that have changed our lives during the recent four decades and will become an essential and inseparable part of human life. First basic concepts of cellular communication systems are discussed, then we describe how they are applied in actual 2G, 3G, 4G and 5G Systems. The emphasis is on the essential concept delivery to non-major learners in the easiest way.
