COURSE DESCRIPTIONS
ELTR 3211 (Control Devices and Systems)
The purpose of this course is to provide the student with an
understanding of the theory relating to Control devices and
systems, including Bode analysis. The theory covered in class
will be applied and validated during the laboratory periods.

Duration - 13 weeks
Lectures - 3 hours/week = 39 hours total
Laboratories - 1 lab @ 3 hours per week = 39 hours total
ELTR 3212 (Networking Basics)
This introductory course in local area networks, wide area
networks, and industrial area networks covers the various levels
of network protocols, from the lowest hardware levels to the
highest application protocols.
Network Environment; Network Reference Models; Area
Networks; Network Routing; Network Management; Networked

ELTR 3400 (Electronic Communications)
This Data Communications course provides a comprehensive
data communications background for Ocean Instrumentation
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 in the field of
Ocean Instrumentation. 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, power meters, as well as hands on practice
with Ocean Sensor Systems.
Introduction to Analog Communications; Amplitude Modulation
and AM Systems; Single-Sideband Techniques; Frequency
and Phase Modulation; Transmission Mediums and Protocols;
