Course Overview
The first course in the Understanding Wireless Solutions curriculum begins by introducing the learner to the fundamental concepts of radio: history or radio, basics of electromagnetism and signals, the organization of channels and radio frequencies, and radio standards and regulatory bodies. The course then focuses on the first of the three radio network types (WPAN, WWLANs, and WWANs) - WPANs - covering each of the four different WPAN types and then going into comprehensive detail on Bluetooth technology.
