Wireless Local and Personal Area Network Laboratory

In this laboratory, ambitious and exciting research projects in the field of wire-
less communications are realized. They include advanced MIMO technologies,
communications with Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and practical imple-
mentation of software-defined platforms. There are 12 work stations in the
lab. Various WLAN devices are used, mainly, access points, access routers,
bridges, controllers, and network adapters. Besides wireless devices, numerous
elements of the structural networks are also used. Moreover, the lab is featured
with a specialist spectrum analyzer, as well as advanced software tools designed for
the analysis of traffic inside WLANs.

Mobile Terminal Programming Laboratory

Programming skills and well-established knowledge on testing of mobile appli-
cations (i.e., apps devoted for smartphones, smartwatches, tablets, etc.) are
among the most desired abilities of prospective ICT workers. The lab on pro-
graming mobile terminals is prepared to instruct students on two most popu-
lar operating systems – Android and iOS. It is featured with 16 PCs with MS
Windows 10, mostly with two screens, beamer with wireless connection, as well
as 7 Apple MiniMacs with the newest operating system and XCode environment.

Microprocessor Programming Laboratory

A well-equipped laboratory introduces the fundamentals of creating and testing
software for microcontrollers of different kinds. There are 16 separate workpla-
ces featured with PCs operated by MS Windows 10 (in most cases, equipped
with two screens), and two development kits: one devoted to the 8051 micro-
processor, and one to the TI ARM Cortex M4. In particular, there are 16 boards
called Didactic Microprocessor Kits DSM-51, and 16 boards „EasyMxPRO™v7
for STELLARIS® ARM®” with the M4C123GH6PGE microcontroller. For pro-
gramming, dedicated Integrated Development Environment (IDE) is used, called
Code Composer Studio.
