ELTR 2115 (Data Communications)
This Data Communications course provides a comprehensive
data communications background to ROV candidates. The
course starts off with an introduction to analog communications
providing a background in amplitude modulation and frequency
modulation principles including single-sideband techniques. Then
the student is introduced to transmission mediums, protocols
and characteristics. This is followed by digital communications
systems, data transfer and emphasizes the practical application
of fibre in the design and construction of communication systems
and networks required for ROV operations. The approach will
give the student the required communications background and a
hands-on, practical understanding of cable handling, terminating,
splicing, testing with optical sources, and power meters.
