Synopsis

Networking and infrastructure are the backbone for IoT systems without which the data cannot flow through the system. IoT devices are different from traditional electronic devices such as laptop and mobile phones connected to the internet. Unlike the mobile phones and laptops, IoT devices have power and bandwidth constraints. Therefore, the traditional protocols used in the computer communications or mobile communications cannot be used directly. This course outlines the specific changes that are done to the existing protocols and infrastructure for the functioning of the IoT system.
