This course is the second of a two-term sequence with 6.450. The focus is on coding techniques for approaching the Shannon limit of additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channels, their performance analysis, and design principles. After a review of 6.450 and the Shannon limit for AWGN channels, the course begins by discussing small signal constellations, performance analysis and coding gain, and hard-decision and soft-decision decoding. It continues with binary linear block codes, Reed-Muller codes, finite fields, Reed-Solomon and BCH codes, binary linear convolutional codes, and the Viterbi algorithm.
More advanced topics include trellis representations of binary linear block codes and trellis-based decoding; codes on graphs; the sum-product and min-sum algorithms; the BCJR algorithm; turbo codes, LDPC codes and RA codes; and performance of LDPC codes with iterative decoding. Finally, the course addresses coding for the bandwidth-limited regime, including lattice codes, trellis-coded modulation, multilevel coding and shaping. If time permits, it covers equalization of linear Gaussian channels.

The course serves as an introduction to the theory and practice behind many of today’s communications systems. 6.450 forms the first of a two-course sequence on digital communication. The second class, 6.451, is offered in the spring.

Topics covered include: digital communications at the block diagram level, data compression, Lempel-Ziv algorithm, scalar and vector quantization, sampling and aliasing, the Nyquist criterion, PAM and QAM modulation, signal constellations, finite-energy waveform spaces, detection, and modeling and system design for wireless communication.

When Jeremiah discovered God’s Word, he said to God, “Your words were found, and I ate them, and Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart.” As Jeremiah devoured God’s Word it became his delight. The Bible became his bread. When a hungry spirit feeds on Holy Scripture sweetness fills the soul. The believer sees across time into eternity. He eavesdrops on the thoughts of God. His attention is snatched from things on earth and focused toward things in heaven. When a hungry heart reads the Bible, God’s presence seems to rise from the page.

Chapter by Chapter is offered in hopes of spurring on the hungry heart. Just as the smell of simmering stew fills the house, arouses the family’s appetite, and causes everyone to scamper to the kitchen – hopefully these chapter summaries will tantalize your spiritual taste buds and draw you to the table. Remember, when a hungry spirit feeds on Holy Scripture sweetness fills the soul. May your soul savor the sweet taste of knowing God!

Webster’s Dictionary defines the word “scan” as “a close examination done quickly.” That’s what Bible Scan is to the Bible. Rather than a topical overview, it’s a journey through the Bible following the flow of the text, at a brisk pace. It’s a “through the Bible study” on fast-forward. This series covers Genesis to Revelation in 106 lessons with both MP3 audio and a PDF study guide.

The audio teachings are by Pastor Sandy Adams, taught on Sunday nights at Calvary Chapel Stone Mountain. Each of the study guides rearranges the information into four page pamphlet with teaching panels, devotional boxes, and key verses to memorize. Humorous anecdotes and personal application are sprinkled thoughtout. Nothing is more enriching than a study through the entirety of God’s Word. Bible Scan will help you cover the Biblical landscape at high speed.
