Telecommunication Engineering

Introduction to network infrastructures • Introduction to network architectures, description of functional areas [2h]. • Presentation of different wired and wireless, terrestrial and non-terrestrial access methodologies [2h]. Access Networks: Wired and Wireless • Broadband copper access networks [3 hours] • ADSL and VDSL technologies and networking solutions [5 hours] • Fiber-based access: FTTX, Passive Optical Networks (PON) and evolutions [3 hours] • Multihop wireless networks, 3G and 4G [2 hours] • Non terrestrial networks [2h] • The Wi-xx family [2 hours] • 4G systems: LTE and LTE-Advanced [5 hours] • 5G evolution [1 hour] Network Transport and Control • Introduction to optical networks [5 hours] • Optical Transport Network (OTN) [2 hours] • Management and control of WDM networks [5 hours] • Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) [5 hours] • Architectures supporting Quality of Service (QoS) [5 hours] • Inter-domain routing and Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) [3 hours] Laboratory Sessions with Kathara (network configuration exercises) • IP addressing [2 hours] • IP routing [2 hours] • DNS configuration [2 hours] • VPN configuration [2 hours] • Firewall configuration [2 hours]

Basic understanding of Computer Networking (including IP/TCP suite) and of Telecommunications (digital data transmission).

Slides and scientific papers available at the Course web site and on the Moodle platform

Teaching activities are divided in theoretical and practical lessons (using Kathara). Blended Learning with on site lectures and online zoom meetings. Attendance to the classes is not mandatory.

optional

The exam consists of two parts: PART 1) a practical test using Kathara (performed on a PC, worth up to 22 points), aimed at assessing the student's ability to correctly configure network devices; PART 2) a theoretical test (2 open-ended questions, worth up to 10 points), designed to evaluate the understanding of theoretical aspects covered during the course. During the semester, the practical skills with Kathara are developed and assessed through homework assignments. During the semester, two in-progress evaluations will also be held as tests that give the right to bonus points. Homework and any bonus points taken during the course will be spendable only in the January/February exam sessions. Starting from March, the exam will be held by doing PART 1) and PART 2) during the exam time.
