ECE 695 Mobile Wireless Networking
Synopsis
The course will explore the fundamental issues emerged from a booming
wireless communication technology. Topics will include 802.11 and
various issues in ad-hoc and sensor networks, including power
management, coverage, topology and location discovery. Students are
expected to read two or three articles per week, to participate in
discussions, to present their findings.
Prerequisites: Graduate standing
Textbooks
- The instructor will provide articles or lists of articles to students.
