Sensor Networks

Lecturer:

Radislav Šmíd (gar.)

Tutor:

Radislav Šmíd (gar.), Jan Neužil

Supervisor:

Department of Measurement

Synopsis:

The course introduces the fundamentals of sensor networks (primarily wireless sensor networks). Emphasis will be placed on distributed data processing in sensor networks and differences between sensor and computer networks. Laboratory exercises enable an implementation of small sensor network for real application in the frame of individual student project.
