Present and future (5G and cellular IoT) of mobile communication systems. The lecture course covers design, analysis and applications of current and upcoming mobile communication systems. Important topics include: mobile wireless channels, PHY technologies, cellular networks, Internet-of-Things, autonomous driving, QoS measurements and evaluation, benchmarking.

In wireless networks the support of QoS is an important issue with respect to user satisfaction, quality assurance and benchmarking - in cellular networks as well as in access networks (e.g. WLAN 802.11). Based on a review of wireless networks, the lecture gives an introduction to: QoS, mechanisms supporting QoS in wireless networks, QoS measurements (and statistical evaluation), benchmarking.
