3 Motivation Why is it important? The Internet and mobile communication networks are experiencing an enormous growth and are a crucial factor of today s economy Future (or today?) networks Heterogeneous fixed and mobile networks interconnected by a common IP core Quick introduction of new network elements, applications and services (software-defined networking, software-defined radio) Internet of Things (Car2car, M2M, D2D) Higher bandwidth, reduced delay, higher reliability and lower cost Challenges: Heterogeneity, dynamics, complexity, cloudification, scalability Energy, localization, QoS (latency, reliability), security 3

4 Objectives Provide an in-depth understanding of research issues in mobile communication networks Understand protocol and networking issues of future mobile communication networks, esp. ad hoc networks and cognitive radio systems Get prepared for research in mobile networking This is a Master course! Material is not given to simply memorize! Digesting the material is the most important part! Why is it done that way? Why not differently? What are the alternatives? What are the pros and cons? 4

5 Organizational Stuff Course prerequisites Required: basics of communication networks and protocols Strongly recommended: basics of IP-based mobile communication systems, e.g. Mobile Communication Networks (B.S. program) Course material is provided at => Teaching => Master Studies Course budget: 5 credits 4 hrs of front-up classes in the first half of the semester Individual (group) studies in the second half Exam In class presentation of results of individual studies Term paper on results of individual studies Individual studies result is valid for 2 semesters after completion Oral exam (20 min, please register at ICS office in Z1031) Grading scheme: 60% oral exam, 40% term paper plus presentation 4.0 required for each part to pass the course 50% correct answers required to pass oral exam (4-5 topics typically) 5

12 Entry Quiz (30 minutes) 1. IP protocol model (similar to OSI protocol layers) 1. Purpose of protocol layering? 2. Draw the layered architecture (IP or OSI)! 3. Difference between function and service of a protocol? 4. Which protocol layers provide end to end, which hop to hop services? 2. Functionality provided by 1. Network layer 2. Transport layer 3. Link layer 4. Physical layer 3. Difference between transport protocol and logical link sublayer? 4. Purpose of a TCP/UDP port, difference to IP address? 5. What does VPN mean? Which protocol implements it? 6. What does CSMA stand for? How does it work? 7. What s the purpose of IP subnetting? What s the effect on routing? 12

13 Entry Quiz For less than 80% correct answers: take a basic course on communication networks, e.g. course by Prof. Dr. Jochen Seitz on Communication Networks (from CSP program) self-study of communication networks self-study of mobile communication networks 13
