Stochastic
Processes, Detection and Estimation (6.432) -- course
development teaching assistant, M.I.T., fall 2000. The second
time Greg and I worked together on this course, our objective
was to give the students a deeper understanding of a complex,
deployed, engineering systems that makes use of the ideas
developed in the class. We chose the Global Positioning
System (GPS) as an exciting application that well
illustrates the crucial roles of detection and estimation
algorithms. We created an extensive Matlab-based project that
taught the students the fundamentals of GPS. The first part of
the project required the students to work out homework-like
exercises to learn about GPS, and its communication and
estimation subsystems. In the second part, the students were
asked to design a GPS location algorithm, and to test their
algorithms (in Matlab) on data sets provided.

Graduate Seminar in
Area I (Communications, Controls, Signal Processing) --
founder and facilitator, M.I.T., fall 2000. In summer/fall
2000, together with Nicholas Laneman I coordinated the
conception, proposal, and running of this new MIT
advanced graduate seminar class by a group of students from the
M.I.T. Digital Signal Processing Group (DSPG) and the Laboratory
of Information and Decision Systems (LIDS). The original course
proposal can be downloaded from proposal.pdf.
Course objectives were: (a) to establish a semi-formal seminar
based upon graduate-student-led discussions of advanced topics
in communications, signal processing, and estimation, not
otherwise covered in the MIT curriculum, (b) to provide a forum
for the cross-fertilization of ideas between research groups,
and (c) to foster the development of our community of faculty
and students.
The seminar was developed with the help and participation of
Profs. David
Forney , Robert
Gallager and Vahid Tarokh .
The course's popularity has continued and has so far has been
offered in Fall 2000, Spring 2001, Fall 2001, Fall 2002, Fall
2003, Fall 2004, and Fall 2005. Please visit the course website
to access the course materials produced: student
presentation summaries, and slides. A major purpose of the
website is to make these educational materials more widely
available.
