Digital wireless communication systems are becoming increasingly important in today?s context. With rapid advancements that are being made in digital technology coupled with the flexibility that digital systems offer, it has become evident that these systems will not only out perform analog system but may in the near future replace them. In this subject, the primary focus will be on the physical layer in which emphasis is placed on fundamentals of radio propagation and communication theoretic aspects of different types of multiple access techniques. An introductory exposure of the principles will be covered. Each topic will be followed with problems that reinforce concepts learned and will help develop an improved understanding of wireless mobile communications
