Internet of Things

To gain a clear understanding of the role of electronic systems in IoT. To become familiar with the ISO/IEC 14443 standard as an illustration of IoT, and its requirements for the design and implementation of its physical layer.

1) General information on IoT: History and evolution – architecture – applications
2) Data in IoT: Encoding – Modulation – Data integrity – Data security – choices based on applications
3) Examples of IoT systems: NFC (Frequency/range/application – NFC standards – Example ISO/IEC14443 – Solutions offered by NXP)
4) Physical layer and examples of electronic design: inductive coupling circuit for HF applications – power supply issues for passive tags – antenna adaptation – power balance
