“Remember
that very little is gained by reading the solution to a problem before
seriously attempting to solve it.” W. Briggs, Ants, Bikes and Clocks: Problem
Solving for Undergraduates, 2005.
Please include in your solutions all the
intermediate results and their numerical values (if applicable). Detailed solutions with explanations are
required, not just the final answers; all symbols used must be defined, including units used (e.g. f =
frequency [Hz], L = path loss [dB]). Missing explanations, symbol
definitions/units will be penalized. Your answers should demonstrate the full
extent of your knowledge and the latter will determine your marks.
Plagiarism (i.e.
“cut-and-paste” from a student to a student, other forms of “borrowing” the
material for the assignment) is absolutely unacceptable and will be
penalized. Each student is expected to submit his own solutions. If two (or
more) identical or almost identical sets of solutions are found, each student
involved receives 0 (zero) for that particular assignment. If this happens
twice, the students involved receive 0 (zero) for the entire assignment
component of the course in the marking scheme and the case will be send to
the Dean’s office for further investigation.
