Training Focus
The Internet of Things (IoT) covers a huge range of use cases and applications and scales from single devices to massive systems with various elements connecting in real time. Wireless connectivity is an integral part of IoT. Depending on the application, factors such as range, data requirements, security, power requirements and battery life will dictate the choice of one or some form of combination of wireless technologies. 
Traditional cellular mobile networks based on 2G/3G/4G have almost ubiquitous coverage and high data rates but at cost of high power requirements at end user devices. Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWAN) based on standards like LoRaWAN, Ultra Narrow Band (UNB) or NB-IoT, are expected to complement traditional connectivity solutions for long range communication. Short range technologies such as Bluetooth, BLE, ZigBee, WiFi or RFID will provide connectivity over short distances. And, of course, 5G presents another set of opportunities for IoT connectivity. 
This course explores radio technologies for IoT applications; discusses the underlying concepts and the resulting advantages and limitations. An analysis of spectrum requirements and availability complements the training.

Course Outcomes
After completing the one-day training, participants will be familiar with most recent radio technologies available to power IoT applications. They will understand the differences between the technologies, and the benefits and compromises of each.

Training Focus
In nearly every factory floor and industrial setting, communication links are used to carry vital information between machinery and to control and monitor devices. From periodic updates to ongoing process and manufacturing management, timely delivery without failure is critical to operations. Cabled systems can be very expensive and tether equipment to fixed locations, reducing flexibility in equipment placement and reorganization. Turning to wireless technology addresses the cabling drawbacks but requires careful examination of transmission, operational and propagation characteristics to achieve the required performance. 

A solid understanding of the possibilities and limitations of current radio technologies (including 5G), deployment scenarios and spectrum availability is therefore essential for the successful introduction of wireless systems for automation. This course describes technologies and concepts for wireless communication for industrial applications. It considers operational requirements, specific RF propagation characteristics, available frequency bands, compatibility issues and develops appropriate design strategies. An overview and comparison of appropriate wireless technologies for industrial applications will complete the training. 

Course Outcomes
After completing the one-day training course, delegates will understand the requirements and limitations of radio systems for industrial applications. They will know the physical and regulatory constraints of the radio environment and understand the procedures for system planning. 

Training Focus
All electronic components including cellphones, computers and vehicles consist of Radio Frequency transmissions which will need to be tested and checked for electromagnetic compliance.

Course Outcomes
This course will provide the basic knowledge to do Electromagnetic Compliance testing of any products in a Full Anechoic chamber.  This course will also cover different anechoic chamber designs, principles and use cases.  The candidate will also be taught the skills to extract and analyze radiation patterns and gain curves of antennas or any radiating element in a system.
