Networks), IoT cloud computing, IoT R&D (Research & Development),
and IoT hardware technologies. Further details are provided in the descriptions of the characteristics of IoT sensors types,
actuator types, and RFID types as well as the functionality and characteristics of IoT device platforms,
which include the Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and BeagleBoard products. Next,
a comparison of the representative IoT developer platform products is presented,
which include the Raspberry Pi, Raspberry Pi 3 Model B, BeagleBoard, Beaglebone Black,
and the Arduino systems Uno R3 (for entry and general purpose), Yun (for IoT), and Lilypad (for wearable).
WEEK 3
IoT NetworksThe third module “IoT Networks” focuses on the functionality and characteristics of IoT wireless networks,
the IoT network architecture, and wearable IoT networks.
To describe the frequency requirements, the characteristics and requirements of the ISM (Industrial,
Scientific and Medical) band are introduced. Next,
the functionality and characteristics of IoT wireless communication technologies based on WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network),
WPAN (Wireless Personal Area Network),
and LPWAN (Low-Power Wide Area Network) are described.
Then further details on WPAN (which include Bluetooth, ZigBee,
6LoWPAN, and IEEE 802.15.4 technology) and LPWAN (which include LoRa, UNB, Sigfox, and NB-IoT) are provided.
In addition, the advantages of IoT and 5G mobile communication networks and the characteristics of mMTC (massive MTC) is covered.
WEEK 4

Wi-Fi technology and the WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) market is introduced, followed by a description
of the functionality of Wi-Fi transmission modes (which include
the Infrastructure mode and the Ad-Hoc mode) and wireless APs (Access Points) as well as BSS (Basic Service Set) and
ESS (Extended Service Set) network formations. The internal process
of Wi-Fi operations and role of DCF (Distributed Coordination Function)
and CSMA/CA (Carrier-Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance) are described followed by the characteristics
of Wi-Fi standards (which include the IEEE 802.11a, 11b, 11e, 11g, 11n, 11p, 11ac, 11ad, 11ah specifications),
Wi-Fi PHY (Physical Layer) modulation schemes, as well as the IFS (Inter-Frame Space) types and how
IFSs are used in priority access control. In addition, the advantages of Wi-Fi Dual Band and Wi-Fi Direct are introduced. Second,
Bluetooth standards and feature evolution are introduced,
which include the specifications from 1.1 to 5 including EDR (Enhanced Data Rate),
HS (High Speed), BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy), and Beacon technology.
