- Introductory lecture (introduction to the plan and program, goals, outcome and methods).
- What are communication standards, historical overview. Technical, regulatory and economic aspects of communication standards. Standardization procedure.
- Reliability and quality of services in infrastructure systems (communication and energy systems).
- Signal propagation in wired and wireless systems. Communication standards of the physical level of wired networks.
- Standardization of physical transmission media. Structural cabling
- Basics of transmission in communication networks. Protocols: ARP, DNS, DHCP, TCP, UDP, IP. Network (LAN, MAN, WAN), broadband services and applications
- IP MultimediaSubsystem (IMS), VoIP and IPTV
- Broadband cable access (xDSL, ADSL, HDSL, RADSL, VDSL, DSLAM, DOCSIS) Hybridfiber-coaxial (HFC)
- Optical Networks (WDM, DWDM). Optical broadband access (G-PON, B-PON, E-PON)
- Cable TV – CATV
- Hybrid Broadband Broadcast TV - HBBTV
- Wireless communication standards: IEEE 802.11 and additional manufacturer standards. IEEE 802.11n, 802.11ac, WiMAX (IEEE 802.16).
