CE 3200 - Wireless Sensor Networks

2 lecture hours 2 lab hours 3 credits
Mass sensor networks are an important part of modern industrial, environmental, security, and military systems. Remote sensors eliminate the need for complex processing at each local node. Instead, processing can be completed at a distant master control computer. Remote sensors send information to control computers either by self-initiating a communication cycle or as a response to a command from the control computer. Wireless networking technology allows the sensor nodes to operate autonomously without a tethered connection. This class introduces the theories of sensor networks as well as common standards such as IEEE 802.15.4 (ZigBee) and IEEE 1451. Topics are explored through lectures, homework assignments, and laboratory projects. (prereq: CE-2810 or EE 2930  or CE 2811 )
