Aims
One of the crucial and essential elements of this technology, which makes it ‘smart’, is its ability to communicate information and data electronically, automatically and remotely and that requires a very clever and intelligent communications network. This module will explore how this technology works, through the use of Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, ZigBee and other protocols and networks.
Learning Outcomes
1.
Assess the connectivity options available for particular scenarios.
2.
Explore the network functionality available and assess its significance.
3.
Evaluate suitability of particular architectures to smart device communications.
