Title:	Industrial Wireless Systems
Description:	Wireless systems and wireless technologies have advanced to the point where stable, robust, and secure networks are ready for deployment in industrial settings. As such, professionals crossing many disciplines (e.g., process, automation, IT, controls) come face-to-face with understanding the implications and opportunities that such wireless networks may provide to them and their plant. This course will cover the most relevant details associated with industrial wireless systems with an emphasis towards how the various technological choices coexist, interoperate, and interact with each other. Numerous examples of real-world deployments are covered for facilities such as supervisory control and acquisition (SCADA) systems, petrochemical plants, electrical power generation, and transmission systems. The operational differences posed to the wireless system's performance by discrete manufacturing needs, monitoring of devices, and even control systems are addressed. Considerable emphasis is placed specifically on 44-100 (the standard for industrial wireless) including deep dives into some of the standard's most pertinent details. Comparison of 44-100 with other protocols and specifications (e.g., Industrial Bluetooth, ZigBee, Wireless HART) are provided.
