Lab to Support Electronic Communications: Digital-Data and Networking

这个项目正在发展一个支持电子通信的实验室。电信设备和软件/网络集成工业部门的快速增长表明，对光纤和网络等概念知识渊博、对现代通信硬件架构有经验、熟悉电子仿真软件的工人的需求急剧增加。将现有的计算机重新分配给第一年的电子实验室，以支持使用模拟软件的实验。计算机维修测试实验室正在支持铜和光纤网络的实验。为了配合实验室的改进，我们引入了新的讲课材料，以补充学生对无线通信主题的理解，例如无线电、卫星、有线和移动电话操作。改进项目将大大提高学生在迅速发展的电信行业的职业生涯，和/或继续他们的四年制学院和大学水平的学习准备。

This project is developing a laboratory to support electronic communications. Rapid growth in the telecommunications equipment and software/network integration industrial segments suggests that there is a dramatic increase in the demand for workers knowledgeable in concepts such as fiber optics and networking, experienced with the architecture found in modern communications hardware, and familiar with electronics simulation software. Reallocation of existing computers to the first year electronics lab is supporting experiments using simulation software. The computer repair test laboratory is supporting experiments in copper and fiber optic networking. In conjunction with the lab improvements, new lecture materials are being introduced to supplement the students' understanding of wireless communications topics, such as radio, satellite, cable, and cell phone operations. The improvement project will produce students significantly better prepared to pursue careers in the rapidly growing telecommunications industry, and/or continue their studies at the four-year college and university level.
