Abstract:
The course focuses on the security of data collection in the areas of sensor networks, sensors and communication technologies. It deals with the principles of sensor networks, the use of sensors of electrical and non-electrical quantities, interfaces for connecting sensors, communication technology for sensor networks such as SigFox, LoRa, NB-IoT, IoT technologies and SmartCity. Also trends in IoT and Smart City, data collection and data fusion technologies belongs to the area of interest. · Sensors, signals and systems, data acquisition chains, sensor types (passive, active and semi-passive) and their application areas · Basic terms in sensor technologies (units, transfer functions, non-linearity, accuracy and range, hysteresis, saturation, etc. · Sensing principles - overview (electric charge, magnetism, resistance etc.), sensor connections to the system, interfaces (A/D converters, amplifiers, excitation circuits, converters), safety measures in sensors. · Occupancy and motion, velocity and acceleration sensors · Force, mechanical stress, pressure and tactile sensors · Position, level, flow, temperature and humidity sensors · Acoustic sensors, light and radiation detectors, electrochemical sensors · Data transmission - wired, buses used, characteristics, safety precautions · Data transmission - wireless, limitations and noise, safety precautions · Sensor networks - introduction, evolution of sensor networks, transition to IoT technologies.
