Digital Communications and Signal Processing for Communications have been traditionally taught from a theoretical point of view. The complexity and cost of radio-frequency systems hampers the realization of practical experiences in the laboratories of Communications. However, current Academic Accreditation includes the dimension of “what students are expected to be able to do”. The decrease of the gap between standard simulated laboratory sessions and more practical and realistic approaches is therefore required. In this paper, we introduce an active learning methodology we have followed in order to introduce practical aspects related to Digital Communications and Signal Processing for Communications courses via low-cost software defined radio devices. The proposed strategy gives the students a key role in their learning process, which has contributed to improve the engagement of both master and under-graduate students. As an example, the laboratory activities the students did based on the IEEE 802.11 standard are presented, and recommendations for practice are given.
