  Communications system engineering - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Communications system engineering is the translation of user requirements for the exchange of information into cost-effective and low-risk technical solutions in terms of equipment and subsystems.
Communications system engineering encompasses the integration of these parts into a complete entity resulting in a minimum investment for the entire system lifecycle required to satisfy the requirements of a majority of users of the communication system.
Systems engineering for a communication network will also require extensive software engineering.

 Department of Communications Engineering
Communications Engineering is concerned with the transmission, communication and processing of signals (information) and the necessary technical equipment for these purposes.
At the same time the processes of communications engineering have found a whole new range of applications, for example, in neighbouring fields such as control and automation engineering or medical engineering as well as in interdisciplinary system concepts such as data communication or traffic engineering.
Communications Engineering was and is being changed fundamentally by the digitisation of all areas.

This article discusses a new communication system that employs 220 MHz wide-area spectrum and 900 MHz unlicensed spectrum, offered by Tantalus Systems Corp. The Tantalus Utility Network (TUNet) intends to create the infrastructure for two-way real-time wireless data communications that are faster than traditional power line carrier solutions.
The system reports supporting multiple applications, including advanced metering, outage management, power quality monitoring, load management, and distribution automation – and is geared toward rural applications.
Selecting the most appropriate communications technology is becoming more difficult given the quantity of choices and the growing list of applications that require a communications backbone.

The communications was accomplished with a VHF radio system to be on standby and powered up for periodic tests and to report failure.
Power was provided by a rechargeable battery system connected to a solar panel sized to charge the batteries assuming a four foot snow pack over the solar cells, and short winter sunlight hours made shorter from shadowing by adjacent mountain peaks.
Considering the physical configuration of the system as well as the installed cost for various segments, the final study recommended a combination system consisting of new static wire with embedded fiber optic cable for most of the closer in-town portion of the system, and including several microwave links to more distant points.

By the end of 2000, Colorado Springs and El Paso County, Colo., expect to complete construction of a countywide communications system that is the largest inter-governmental project the city and county have undertaken.
The $28 million system is the culmination of more than four years of work to design and implement a communications network that can be shared by Colorado Springs Utility (CSU) and governmental agencies, including public safety and public service.
Limited interoperability was a driving force behind the project; communications technology used by some agencies was incompatible with that of others, making it difficult to efficiently handle even the most routine calls that required a multi-agency response.
