Course Details
Objectives: Embedded systems are everywhere: computing, automobile, avionics, satellites, telecommunications, home automation systems, medical, electronic consumer, remote sensing etc... Electronics is one of the major disciplines in the conception of embedded systems. It allows the design of integrated circuits (microprocessors, DSP, ASICs), digital and analog signal processing. Microwaves and High frequencies components and Systems are in the heart of telecommunications (satellites, Mobiles phones, automobile and health). The effective management of the energy in these circuits is the common denominator of all embedded applications.
This training is dedicated to the electronic systems for embedded and communicating applications : design of integrated circuits (noise, EMC, energy management, power, MEMs, optoelectronics, instrumentation), RF circuits, antennas (numerical methods for electromagnetism, high frequencies passive circuits, electrodynamics, materials) and the digital signal and image processing (telemedicine and remote sensing applications). The basic courses concern signal theory, signal processing, electromagnetism, circuits’ theory (analog, digital, RF) with dedicated lab projects. Finally, the relations with industry and research are important: industrial and research projects are proposed during the two years training.
