ICT 5106: Computer Networks

This subject introduces students to different aspects of computer networking: from the basics such as Internet layers, IP addressing to advanced networking such as LAN design, routing protocols, subnetting, access control list (ACL), and Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). The subject also gives a good understanding on different types of IEEE standards required for building networks such as IEEE 802.11, IEEE 802.15, and IEEE 802.16. In addition, the subject helps students to design different categories of practical computer networks with different types of devices. The course includes continuous assessment in the form of Mid Term examinations, assignments and term papers.


ICT 6613: Mobile and Wireless Communications

This course introduces students to different aspects of mobile and wireless communication systems: propagation mechanisms, link budget design, multipath fading, etc. The course also helps students to understand different generations of mobile communication starting from 2G GSM to 3G WCDMA and 4G LTE/LTE-Advanced. The course includes continuous assessment in the form of Mid Term examinations, assignments and term papers.
