OVERVIEW

The course is aimed at providing the student with basic knowledge on the topics of telecommunication networks and signal processing/analysis in industrial contexts and especially in the framework of Industry 4.0

AIMS AND CONTENT

LEARNING OUTCOMES

The course aims to provide students with essential knowledge on telecommunications networks and signal processing / analysis in industrial contexts and, in particular, in the context of Industry 4.0. At the end of the course, the student will know the basic principles of telecommunications networks, the main technologies / standards related to wired and wireless networks applicable in industrial environments, the architecture and Internet protocols and the basic aspects related to the theme of cyber security. He will also have learned the essential concepts related to the representation of analogical and digital information and to the analysis of data through machine learning

AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES
