Abstract :
This paper describes a new course on instrumentation given to telecommunications engineering students at the Universidad Publica de Navarra, Spain. This course has been introduced within the context of the renovation of curricula in Spain, in which instrumentation has become a mandatory subject. Instrumentation is thus presented as a relevant discipline on its own in which many technologies and techniques converge. A system approach is used in the course to emphasize signal and system theory concepts to students.
