Business Rule Generation for IoT
3 layered architecture of Big Data — Physical (Sensors), Communication , and Data Intelligence
Introduction of IoT: All about Sensors – Electronics
Basic function and architecture of a sensor — sensor body, sensor mechanism, sensor calibration, sensor maintenance, cost and pricing structure, legacy and modern sensor network — all the basics about the sensorsDevelopment of sensor electronics — IoT vs legacy, and open source vs traditional PCB design styleDevelopment of sensor communication protocols — history to modern days. Legacy protocols likeModbus, relay, HART to modern day Zigbee, Zwave, X10,Bluetooth, ANT, etc.Business driver for sensor deployment — FDA/EPA regulation, fraud/tempering detection, supervision, quality control and process managementDifferent Kind of Calibration Techniques — manual, automation, infield, primary and secondary calibration — and their implication in IoTPowering options for sensors — battery, solar, Witricity, Mobile and PoEHands on training with single silicon and other sensors like temperature, pressure, vibration, magnetic field, power factor etc.
Fundamental of M2M communication — Sensor Network and Wireless protocol
What is a sensor network? What is ad-hoc network?Wireless vs. Wireline networkWiFi- 802.11 families: N to S — application of standards and common vendors.Zigbee and Zwave — advantage of low power mesh networking. Long distance Zigbee. Introduction to different Zigbee chips.Bluetooth/BLE: Low power vs high power, speed of detection, class of BLE. Introduction of Bluetooth vendors & their review.Creating network with Wireless protocols such as Piconet by BLEProtocol stacks and packet structure for BLE and ZigbeeOther long distance RF communication linkLOS vs NLOS linksCapacity and throughput calculationApplication issues in wireless protocols — power consumption, reliability, PER, QoS, LOSHands on training with sensor network1. PICO NET- BLE Base network2. Zigbee network-master/slave communication3. Data Hubs : MC and single computer ( like Beaglebone ) based datahub
