Description:

After passing the course, a student comprehends the Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) as a new technology area in research and industry. A student is familiar with the main standards and specifications of WSNs and identifies the key building blocks for them. A student can define and explain the essential challenges of resource constrained WSN design and implementation, including applications, interfaces, energy-efficient protocols and platform functionalities. A student can apply both theoretical and practical tools for WSN design and utilization and design potential application scenarios for WSNs.
