Having attended with profit the subjects on Maths and Signal, as well as the course on 'Communication Networks I'.

Telematics is one of the professional branches of telecommunications.

This course is the second that develops the Telematics subject with more advanced topics on the way a network carries out all its functionalities.

This course is terminal in the Telematics subject and it is recommended to have taken profit before attending the elective course on 'Security in Communications'.

General comments about the planning:

Units will be taught consecutively along the real calendar of the term in which the course is placed. The planning of the course could slightly change to be adapted to the appropriate progress of the class. During the beginning of the term, the weekly planning will be published in virtual campus.
