Course Description
This course will introduce mobile and wireless networking concepts, problems and solutions from more computer
science point of view. The topics that will be covered include: Wireless
Transmission (Physical Layer); Wireless Media Access (Link Layer); (Wireless)
Telecommunication Systems (GSM/GPRS, DECT, TETRA, UMTS and IMT-2000),
Wireless LANs (IEEE 802.11, Bluetooth) Mobile Network Layer (Mobile IP, DHCP,
Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks, Mobile Transport Layer (TCP over Wireless), Mobile
Application Support and Mobile Applications, Wireless Sensor Networks.
Prerequisites
CENG 567/465 is
a graduate and also an advanced undergraduate
course. The basic requirements for the course: CENG
362 Computer Networks and CENG 102 Computer Programming (Java programming).
Having taken CENG 341 Operating Systems and CENG 463 Network
Programming is a plus but not mandatory. Everyone should be prepared for
substantial amount of programming and/or writing a term paper.
Since this is
a graduate course, I recommend undergraduate students to take this course
only if their GPA is higher than 3.00. If your are determined to work hard
for this course load, your GPA is not so important!
The
graduate students have more paper readings, discussions and presentations in
this course. Their project also should be more difficult than undergrads.
That is the amount of work and quality are expected to exceed that of
undergraduate students. The grading criteria for graduates and undergraduates will also be
different.
