Programme
The course introduces the main features of wireless telecommunication systems, both in the RF (Radio Frequency) and OWC (Optical Wireless Communications) domain. Starting from networking theory, the fundamentals of wireless telecommunication systems will be investigated. Special interest will be given to Internet protocol and then to ad-hoc networks. About OWC, this course will focus on IEEE 802.15.7 standard dedicated to wireless communications in the visible light spectrum range (Visible Light Communications) for indoor applications, as well as underwater one such as Internet of Underwater Things.Core Documentation
