Modules

Prerequisites

Contents

• Architecture of wireless sensor node • Mechanisms to save energy • Communication protocols and data processing • Security and privacy aspects These topics are prototypically implemented in the exercises using example problems.

Learning outcomes

After successfully completing the module, students are acquainted with the practical approach for implementing a wireless sensor network application. They know the technical foundations as well as the security and data protection aspects. They are able to recognise the different aspects of the application and determine the partly conflicting requirements from this. They can make the necessary decisions to determine the final application and its features. In the case of several solutions, possibly with several parameters, they are able to find an optimal solution.

Assessment

Prerequisite: • Successful completion of exercise assignments Final module examination: • Written examination, 90 min. OR • Oral examination, 30 min. (with small number of participants) In the first lecture it will be anounced, if the examination will be offered in written or oral form.
