Description

Information Theory, Coding and Cryptography. Instructor: Dr. Ranjan Bose, Department of Electrical Engineering, IIT Delhi.

Information theory, coding and cryptography are the three load?bearing pillars of any digital communication system. In this introductory course, we will start with the basics of information theory and source coding. Subsequently, we will discuss the theory of linear block codes (including cyclic codes, BCH codes, RS codes and LDPC codes), convolutional codes, Turbo codes, TCM and space time codes. Finally, we will introduce the basics of secure communications by focusing on cryptography and physical layer security. Wherever possible, applications of the theory in real world scenarios have been provided. The underlying aim of this course is to arouse the curiosity of the students. (from nptel.ac.in)
