Data confidence 85 high
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The main tasks solved with the help of a digital educational platform with interactive learning opportunities are a remote process of obtaining knowledge, providing permanent access to educational materials, and monitoring the level of students’ performance. This paper considers the development of a digital educational platform for the remote study of modern Ultra high frequency (UHF) and Extremely high frequency (EHF) radio systems. The architecture of the developed platform is a client-server. The server part includes a database of collected laboratory results, and the client part is responsible for displaying and outputting the necessary information. The list of virtual labs that are part of the educational platform, as well as devices and measuring instruments used in the virtual laboratory is presented. An example of a lab with remote access implemented using the Unity 3D application development tool is given. This digital educational platform will be used by students of the «Radio Engineering, Electronics and Telecommunications» educational program to study radio engineering courses. It is shown that the use of virtual laboratory work in the educational process can replace real expensive equipment, as well as consolidate practical skills in training.
