Computer Science 690W - AdvWirelessNetwkng&Sensing/IoT

Nowadays, wireless technologies (such as 802.11 Wi-Fi) do not only provide data service but also cater to diverse applications including indoor localization, user authentication, contactless activity sensing, vital sign monitoring, gesture recognition, sleep sensing, wireless charging, etc. This course introduces the students with fundamentals in wireless networking and also the state-of-the-art sensing applications in the Era of Internet-Of-Things. Wireless sensing is also a cutting edge research area which involves wireless communication, signal processing, human computer interaction, machine learning and also hardware prototyping.
