This 1-hour course presents the overview of Machine-Type Communication (MTC) features for the Cellular Internet of Things (CIoT) as specified by 3GPP for 4G and 5G networks.
It briefly describes selected enhancements for the radio and core network, new radio technologies like LTE-M and NB-IoT, and other related topics. The focus is on Massive IoT features. This overview focuses on technical aspects of IoT communication enhancements in 3GPP networks.
This course exists in a longer version, IoT in 4G and 5G, covering all topics in much more detail.
Note: This course is not delivered with the FoldOut methodology.
