- Abstract:
This tutorial explains how satellite images are taken, transmitted to Earth, and converted into viewable form. Descriptions of each phase of the process are included: capture and transmittal of the image by a satellite or spacecraft, receiving the signal at one of the Deep Space Network's antennas, and processing the data into an image at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory's Multimission Image Processing Laboratory.

- Abstract:
" The course serves as an introduction to the theory and practice behind many of today's communications systems. 6.450 forms the first of a two-course sequence on digital communication. The second class, 6.451 Principles of Digital Communication II, is offered in the spring. Topics covered include: digital communications at the block diagram level, data compression, Lempel-Ziv algorithm, scalar and vector quantization, sampling and aliasing, the Nyquist criterion, PAM and QAM modulation, signal constellations, finite-energy waveform spaces, detection, and modeling and system design for wireless communication."
