Course overview

This course is extending the knowledge of students into the areas of “short-range” communications and should thus be seen as a supplement to high-frequency directional radio links and mobile radio evolutions. Focus in this course will be on radio links for personal and mobile devices covering from some cm (contactless, short range) up to some 10 meters (wireless area). The second half of the course will analyse the IP-based mobility management.

Comments to the course:
Fint kurs, har lært vanvittig mye på 3-4 mnd.

Topics:

  • Principles of radio propagation and radio interaction
  • Research topics in contactless, short-range and wireless radio networks
  • IP-based mobility management for high throughput
  • Fast mobility protocols
  • Evaluation of mobility protocols for future mobile communication systems

The main goal of the course is to work with scientific literature and analyse advantages and weaknesses of suggested approaches. Students will be asked to select topics, work through the related literature, perform an analysis of the literature, present the results towards the other students and discuss the advantages and shortcomings. This introductory work is mandatory for the participants, as it forms the basis for a home work, analysing selected topics in dedicated areas. The home work will be a report, and contributes to the final grade. Simulation of throughput in a network simulator is the second topic relevant for the final grade. Participants will learn to use the network simulator, and analyse specific radio interfaces.

Lecture overview

The lectures are prepared in close co-operation with Pekka Jäppinen from Lappeenranta University, Finland. See his lecture notes (in Finnish); testing slideshow functionality at UNIK4700test
