Short Course on
Telecommunication Networks with State-of-the-Art Hands-on
Experiments
8th July - 13th July, 2013
Department of Electronics and Electrical Communication Engineering
Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur – 721302
Introduction
Research on
telecommunication systems started in the Department of Electronics and
Electrical Communication Engineering (E&ECE) at IIT Kharagpur in early
fifties. From the last century following 2nd world war, the whole world has witnessed
an all-pervasive growth in the technology of telecommunication networks. IIT
Kharagpur has also followed this advancement and continued to make its own
contributions through teaching as well as research activities in this area. Recently,
realizing the needs for hands-on training in this area to bridge the gap
between theory and practice, E&ECE Department has developed a
State-of-the-Art Laboratory. The laboratory has been setup with a wide range of
modern telecommunication equipments, including IP and MPLS routers, Ethernet
and ATM switches, ISDN and EPABX systems, ADMs as SDH nodes, wireless access
points, network access control and intrusion detection software, etc., This networking
infrastructure is used across the department building to form in-house network
test-beds with different possible practical topological formations, with which
our students carry out wide range of experimentations on networking concepts.
The proposed 6-days-long comprehensive training would consist of theory and
laboratory classes going handin-hand. Thus, the short-term course will offer,
along with stimulating lectures in the area, a rare opportunity to gather a hands-on
experience on how telecommunication networks are formed in practice and, how
data, voice and video are transferred between heterogeneous networks therein,
through Ethernet, router, ATM, SDH and MPLS based networking infrastructures.
The course will also provide a forum for professional interaction between the
IIT community and others, which would hopefully lead to useful research
collaboration amongst the participating organizations in due course of time.
