This course is an introductory course on wireless mobile networks in which we study the
fundamental problems and techniques related to wireless mobile networks. We examine
Course how the mobility of devices or end-users affects the protocol layers of communications.
We also investigate emerging applications enabled by deploying mobile networks. The
Description networks we study include infrastructure wireless networks in which an underlying
infrastructure is required as well as ad hoc networks in which mobile nodes form their
own network infrastructure on the move.
