Mode of study

Not applicable.

Entry knowledge

The subject knowledge on the Bachelor degree level is required.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course

Evaluation of study results follows the Rules for Studies and Examinations of BUT and the Dean's Regulation complementing the Rules for Studies and Examinations of BUT.
Up to 40 points are given for work in laboratory.
Up to 60 points are given for the final examination.

The content and forms of instruction in the evaluated course are specified by a regulation issued by the lecturer responsible for the course and updated for every academic year.

Aims

The objective of the course is to teach students to recognize reliable activities of data transmission systems. Methods of data signal coding are studied in the first place. Major emphasis is laid on code protection against errors generated during data signal transmission.
On completing the course, students will be able to explain the principles of the protection of data against errors and the transmission systems of access networks.
