Trial lecture for appointment to Associate Professor with Dr. Patrik Österberg
Welcome to a trial lecture in computer engineering for appointment as Associate Professor with Patrik Österberg, STC Research Center. The lecture is given in English.
Industrial Wireless Sensor Networks
Wireless networks have some great benefits over their wired counterparts, such as the reduced deployment cost of infrastructure and the support of mobile nodes. However, the wireless shared medium also brings some great challenges for data transmission, e.g. in terms of interference and collisions when multiple nodes what to transmit simultaneously. These challenges are even more severe if the networks are to be deployed in industrial scenarios with high requirements on reliability and low delay. Nevertheless, there are some approaches to cope with the contradicting relationship between physical prerequisites and requirements of the applications, as will be presented during this lecture.
The seminar will be held in English. It is possible to attend the seminar in room E409, Campus Sundsvall or via Zoom.
