A course is the basic teaching unit, it's design as a medium for a student to acquire comprehensive knowledge and skills indispensable in the given field. A course guarantor is responsible for the factual content of the course.
For each course, there is a department responsible for the course organisation. A person responsible for timetabling for a given department sets a time schedule of teaching and for each class, s/he assigns an instructor and/or an examiner.
Expected time consumption of the course is expressed by a course attribute extent of teaching. For example, extent = 2 +2 indicates two teaching hours of lectures and two teaching hours of seminar (lab) per week.
At the end of each semester, the course instructor has to evaluate the extent to which a student has acquired the expected knowledge and skills. The type of this evaluation is indicated by the attribute completion. So, a course can be completed by just an assessment ('pouze zápočet'), by a graded assessment ('klasifikovaný zápočet'), or by just an examination ('pouze zkouška') or by an assessment and examination ('zápočet a zkouška') .
The difficulty of a given course is evaluated by the amount of ECTS credits.
The course is in session (cf. teaching is going on) during a semester. Each course is offered either in the winter ('zimní') or summer ('letní') semester of an academic year. Exceptionally, a course might be offered in both semesters.
The subject matter of a course is described in various texts.

NI-BPS Wireless Computer Networks Extent of teaching: 2P+1C
Instructor: Moucha A. Completion: Z,ZK
Department: 18104 Credits: 4 Semester: L

Annotation:
Students will learn about the modern technologies, protocols, and standards for wireless networks. They will understand the routing mechanisms in ad-hoc networks, multicast and broadcast mechanisms, and data flow control mechanisms. They will also learn about principles of communication in sensor networks. They get knowledge of security mechanisms for wireless networks and get skills of configuration of wireless network elements and simulation of wireless networks using suitable tools.

Lecture syllabus:
1. Wireless local communication, properties of radio communication channels.
2. Communication channels, coding and modulation methods, CDMA, OFDM.
3. Mechanisms of shared channels access in wireless networks, MAC.
4. Addressing schemes in wireless networks, time synchronization, localization, mobility.
5. Networks IEEE 802.11b/g/a/n, communication, relation to IP, security mechanisms.
6. WiMax networks (IEEE 802.16), access mechanisms, mobility.
7. Ad-hoc networks: construction of communication topology.
8. Routing in ad-hoc networks, proactive and reactive methods.
9. Sensor networks, architecture and communication principles.
10. Technology of mobile phones GSM, architecture, localization, modern technologies UMTS, LTE.
11. Bridges between wireless networks and TCP/IP and VoIP networks.
12. Technologies of sensor networks, ZigBee.

Seminar syllabus:
Configuration of WiFi for different network types and topologies (ad-hoc, infrastructure, enterprise with certification authority); WiFi sniffing and WEP cracking; Configuration of ZigBee networks for different environments and topologies; Satelite communication; Spectral analysis of the wireless channel
