The purpose of the course is to give the students a sound understanding of the architecture and operating principles of mobile and wireless networks. This course provides a general introduction to mobile networking, with an emphasis on the wireless data transmission and mobility of terminals.

Knowledge and understanding:
Understanding of the basic wireless networks concepts. Understanding of the various wireless networks differences and its applications.
Application:
Wireless and mobile networks applications in various working conditions (industrial, house, personal networks ...)
Reflection:
Comprehension and understanding wireless data transmission theory and its application in real world application from the field.
Transferable skills:
Solving of the similar problems from field of the computer communications.

Lectures, lab practice.
