All TIMS experiments are implemented using our unique
block diagram approach which allows users to model systems both at simple and more complex levels. Full documentation is included and you can download samples here. Take me to the TIMS home page.
The TIMS Labsheets provide a library of over 100 concise experiments, covering the fundamentals of many key telecommunications topics which can be used either directly by students or by professors to prepare their own material.
The five volume TIMS Student Texts, over 1000 pages in total, provide an in-depth coverage of a broad range of both analog and digital experiments. Included is supporting theoretical information, detailed experimental instructions and challenging questions. Each chapter also contains a tutorial section, and a Professor's 'Tutorial Answers Manual' is included.
There is some repetition of experiments between the Labsheets and the Student Text due to differing depth of coverage.
After viewing this list, fill in our quick CHECKLIST of experiments for your laboratory course and we will contact you with a quotation to meet your needs.
