Topic:

Connectivity from Space! The rise of the Internet-of-Things over Satellite

 Imagine one day you could access the Internet from anywhere on Earth! Can we do that? 

Satellites are envisioned to provide the ultimate flexibility in complementing the next generation terrestrial networks. Whether it is the need for higher bandwidth, lower latency, or global connectivity, dense satellite networks are gradually becoming a viable engineering and business solution to addressing these demands. This seminar will skim through some of the key advances in this field and explore the challenges and research opportunities for connecting Internet-of-Things devices using satellite networks. It will also provide an overview of the recently completed largest open IoT network built in Victoria where RMIT provided the key expertise for creating this network along with 5 Victorian councils. Looking forward talking to you in this seminar!
