Summary
The lessons of "Advanced Communication Networks" cover three main points which are: 1) Cellular networks. 2) LPWAN (Low Power Wide Area Network) for IoT networks. 3) UHS (Ultra High Speed) communications. In the first part, the four generations (1G to 4G) of cellular networks are presented focusing on the aspect of the physical layer and an introduction to 5G technology is given. The second part mainly describes what LPWAN networks are and focuses on two French and well-known protocols, LoRa ￜ and Sigfox ￜ. Finally, the last part concerns UHS communications including fiber and THz communications. Course Map : - Chapter 1: Telecommunications networks. - Chapter 2: Mobile telephone networks. - Chapter 3: IoT networks. - Chapter 4: UHS (Ultra High Speed) communications.
Educational goals
By the end of the module, students should have acquired the following skills: - Understand the differences between families of wireless technologies. - Assimilate basic knowledge on current and future cellular networks as well as new LPWAN technologies for IoT. - To be able to identify a wireless technology adapted to a specific use case. - Be able to set up a simple but complete IoT application.
Sustainable development goals
Knowledge control procedures
Continuous Assessment
Comments: - Practical work on setting up a LoRa network (50%).
- Presentation on one of the technologies for IoT (50%).
Online resources
- Handout and course videos. - Course transparencies.
Pedagogy
Theoretical lessons (22h of lessons) are complemented by laboratory work (8h) which focuses on the LoRa protocol (WAN), where students analyze the LoRa protocol and create their first and complete IoT application, from data transmission to their viewing using popular applications / software (SDR Console, Arduino, Cayenne myDevices, etc.).
