37. WLAN

38. Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) 1011 0101 01011011 Internet Access Point • WLANs connect “local” computers (100m range) • Breaks data into packets • Channel access is shared (random access) • Backbone Internet provides best-effort service • Poor performance in some apps (e.g. video)

39. In 200?, all WLAN cards will have all 3 standards Wireless LAN Standards • 802.11b (Current Generation) • Standard for 2.4GHz ISM band (80 MHz) • Frequency hopped spread spectrum • 1.6-10 Mbps, 500 ft range • 802.11a (Emerging Generation) • Standard for 5GHz NII band (300 MHz) • OFDM with time division • 20-70 Mbps, variable range • Similar to HiperLAN in Europe • 802.11g (New Standard) • Standard in 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands • OFDM • Speeds up to 54 Mbps

41. Satellite Systems • Cover very large areas • Different orbit heights • GEOs (39000 Km) versus LEOs (2000 Km) • Optimized for one-way transmission • Radio (XM, DAB) and movie (SatTV) broadcasting • Most two-way systems struggling or bankrupt • Expensive alternative to terrestrial system • A few ambitious systems on the horizon

43. How the Inmarsat System Works • The satellites are controlled from the Satellite Control Centre (SCC) at Inmarsat HQ in London. • Four tracking, telemetry and control (TT&C) stations located at Fucino, Italy; Beijing in China; Lake Cowichan, western Canada; and Pennant Point, eastern Canada. There are also back-up stations at Eik in Norway and Aukland, New Zealand. • A call from an Inmarsat mobile terminal goes directly to the satellite overhead, which routes it back down to a land earth station (LES). • The flow of communications traffic through the Inmarsat network is monitored and managed by the Network Operations Centre (NOC) at Inmarsat HQ. • The NOC is supported by network co-ordination stations (NCS).
