Course Discription |
:
Wireless networks have special characteristics and requirements which makes them different from wired networks. The goal of this course is to study the different wireless networks routing protocols. The focus will be on the different routing protocols (energy-efficient routing, QoS routing, geographical-based routing …..) designed for the MANET and sensor networks. The course will cover MAC and Network layers such as CSMA, CSMA/CA, TDMA, TDMA/CSMA, AODV, DSR, WRP, TORA and LEACH. This course has a term project and/or assignments. Also, this course Focuses on fundamental security issues in wireless networks security topics includes: confidentiality, Privacy, Integrity, Spoofing signal Intercept, Key management and distribution and control of fraudulent usage of wireless networks. It also introduces the security mechanisms for the most common wireless networks including: WLAN, Bluetooth, GSM, 3G networks, WiMax, and sensor networks. |
