CNAE, Certified Network Administrator and Engineer, networking essentials, networking fundamentals, networking theory, network troubleshooting, network design, network security, network administration, network engineering.
In this webinar, Tom Carpenter explains the importance of standards, standards organizations, and some of the important standards you should know about as a wireless professional. IEEE, IETF, Wi-Fi Alliance, ISA, INCOSE, CSA, LoRa Alliance, and more.
In this webinar, Tom Carpenter explains the simulations available in the CWAP-405 Digital Edition of the Official Study and Reference Guide (and that will be available in future Digital Editions for other certifications as well). In the process, you will understand modulation, CCI, and even radio configuration requirements better.
In this webinar, Tom Carpenter covers the research-based projections for various wireless protocols, including Wi-Fi, LoRaWAN, Bluetooth, Zigbee, and Private 5G, among others. He also covers some tips from research on how to prepare for careers in the wireless future.
In this webinar, Tom Carpenter explains how you can use pseudo-code to define algorithms and better understand Wi-Fi processes and operations using this method. He also shows how to use this pseudo-code with LLMs to generate Python scripts so that you can further analyze and understand the depths of how Wi-Fi Works.
In this webinar, Tom Carpenter discusses career management from a research-based perspective. You will learn about theories related to tech career management, self-management, and commitment. You'll also be exposed to the Effective Foundations Theory (EFT), which has been developed over 20 years of experience and research in the tech industry.
Tom Carpenter talks about the importance of experiential learning and then provides advice on how to select hardware and software for your learning lab. Learn about Semantic vs. Enacted encoding, experiential learning, and the significant enhancement to information recall provided. Look at an example AP and think about the features you should look for when selecting a low-cost AP for your lab. Explore other hardware and software that can empower your Wi-Fi learning.
In this webinar, Phil Morgan addresses Wi-Fi security and covers important topics like WPA3 and 6 GHz Wi-Fi
Phil Morgan provides an overview of the features and benefits of Wi-Fi 7 and 802.11be and the reality we can expect from it.
In this podcast, Tom discusses systems thinking, system definitions, system perspectives and the importance of this for wireless administrators and engineers.
In this new series, Tom will briefly describe the channelization used by various wireless IoT protocols. The first in the series explains Bluetooth channels. Future installments will address Zigbee, WirelessHART, ISA100.11a, 6LoWPAN/Thread, LoRaWAN, Sigfox, Z-Wave, and other 802.15.4-based and proprietary protocols.
In this webinar, Tom Carpenter will describe the features and characteristics of the ISA100.11a and WirelessHART IIoT protocols.
In this webinar, you will get an overview of LoRaWAN and a detailed explanation of the LoRa modulation available in LoRa devices. You will learn when this IoT protocol is most useful and the features and capabilities it offers.
In this presentation, Tom Carpenter introduces the terms and concepts around Industrial Automation, which are important for the IoT professional to understand. These include SCADA, DCS, PLC, Sensors, Actuators, and more. Tom also recommends his two favorite books on Industrial Automation to make you a better IIoT engineer.
GUEST WEBINAR: Tom Carpenter was invited to talk about Wi-Fi in this Celona webinar, comparing Wi-Fi with CBRS or private LTE, and we thought our audience might like to see it as well. To learn more about Celona, visit their site at: https://www.celona.io/
In this month's Wireless News Desk, Tom Carpenter shares an article focusing on the "stuff" that IoT generates and how we deal with it. He then shares the oneM2M solution that can either be implemented as a solution to IoT "stuff" management or as a model for custom implementations of integration solutions.
