Understanding Network and Security for Far-Edge Computing

Edge computing in situations where reliable, high-speed internet access is not a given due to location or the nature of the devices involved are known as far-edge use cases. Examples include a mobile data center for disaster response, remote sensors for smart agriculture, a pilot station for a military UAV, or content delivery onboard a commercial airplane in flight.

In this chapter, we’re going to cover the following main topics:

  • Introduction to radio frequency (RF) communications
  • Utilizing cellular networks
  • Optimizing Wi-Fi (802.11x)-based connectivity
  • Connecting to low-powered devices with LoRaWAN
  • Integrating SATCOM in remote scenarios
