Welcome to the world of communication acoustics, where we explore how sounds travel from a source, through a channel, and finally reach a receiver. This engineering course delves into the fundamentals of how acoustic signals are transmitted and received, covering various system components involved in different types of communication, whether it’s between humans, between humans and machines, or even between machines.

Throughout this course, you will explore key topics such as Speech Acoustics, Hearing Acoustics, Electroacoustics, the Human Auditory System, and Digital Audio Processing methods. You’ll learn from top experts in the field, all of whom are affiliated with leading technical universities in Germany. These experts have collaborated to provide you with a comprehensive understanding of communication acoustics and to share the latest research trends.

By the end of this course, you will have a broad understanding of the subfields involved in communication acoustics, preparing you for the continuation course, “Applications in Communication Acoustics,” available through edX.
