The course starts with a brief review of communication systems in Chapter 1 followed by methods of signal representation and system analysis in both time and frequency domains in Chapter 2. Emphasis is placed on the Fourier series and the Fourier transform representations of signals and the use of transforms in linear systems analysis. Traditional analog communication systems are also covered with details in Chapters 3, 4, and 5. Finally, sampling theorem and analog pulse modulation techniques are introduced in Chapter 6.

本課程旨在幫助修課學生建立通訊知識之基礎，以便日後修習更高深的理論。本課程將介紹現代通訊系統中常見的技術與觀念，並指導學生使用基礎的數學工具設計與分析這些系統。
