Anotation:
The essence of IoT technologies is the transfer of information, communication of things with each other and especially the possibility of developing new types of services. The course in a simplified form presents the basics of digital communication, especially wireless, with a focus on specific communication protocols in IoT, not only in industrial applications. IoT is understood as a complex system with the possibility of using existing components, development and presentation environments for data processing and visualization, including the concept of IoT as a service. Part of the exercise is acquaintance with specific technologies in the laboratory and project solutions individually and in a team.
Study targets:
The aim of the course is to acquaint students with communication technologies for the design, implementation and operation of systems in the concept of IoT, in various application areas. The graduate of the course will gain theoretical knowledge and selected practical skills for solving the tasks of selecting and deploying appropriate communication technologies and systems in the IoT environment.
