Why? • Mobility (anytime) • Coverage (anywhere) • New applications potential (services) • Healthcare • Lab administration • People with disabilities • Point-of-Care testing • Homecare administration • Controlling patient data • Education • More efficient learning methods • Wireless is ideal for campus-wide coverage

  3. Some Application Areas • Retail • Direct inventory management • Mobile POS • Self-checkout • Mobile scanners • Manufacturing • Field based data collections • Product management • Inventory visibility and planning

  4. Vehicular Networks • Safetyandtransportefficiency • InEuropearound 40,000 peopledieandmore than 1.5 millionsare injuredeveryyearontheroads • Trafficjamsgenerate a tremendouswasteoftimeandoffuel • Mostoftheseproblemscanbesolvedbyprovidingappropriateinformationtothedriverortothevehicle

  5. VehicleCommunication (VC) • VC promisessaferroads, • … more efficient driving,

  6. VehicleCommunication (VC) • … more fun, • … and easier maintenance.

  7. Rural communications • Rural communications on the global agenda • Connecting villages with Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and establishing community access points • Benefits • E-business and e-commerce could play an important role in enabling local artisans to reach national and international markets Over 40% of the world’s population lives in rural and remote areas of developing countries and have difficult or no access to even basic telecommunications services. Development of telecommunications in rural and remote areas, therefore forms an important mission of the ITU Development sector. Yasuhiko Kawasumi, “Rural communications on the global agenda,” Global Survey on Rural Communications for the ITU-D on Communications for rural and remote areas.

  8. Rural populations and their ICT needs • Needs of rural people in connection with e-services • E-health, e-education and e-administration top the list as primary needs • E-business and e-banking also scored highly ITU-D global survey, Doc 111/SG2 For many rural areas, electricity supply is simply non-existent or insufficient Telemedicine Training in Bhutan by Tokai University: Tokai University Institute of Medical Sciences donated the medical equipments with ICT functions and provided the training on the use of equipments. Tokai University Second Opinion center provides the assistance service over the internet when requested by the Bhutanese ends.

  9. About the “Wireless Internet” Bluetooth RFID WWAN (3G,4G?) Low throughput, Long range WMAN (Wi-Max) WLAN (Wi-Fi) High throughput, short range Low throughput, short range WPAN

  10. Big Picture – WPAN’s • WPAN technologies – RFID, Bluetooth • RFID used in tagging applications, restricted environments (supermarkets, institutions) • 10 billion RFID tags to be sold by the end of 2005 (source: Deloitte & Touche) • Bluetooth – technology has matured • 56% of mainstream devices commercialised will have Bluetooth support by 2008 (Source: IDC) • Poor interoperability between vendors restricts the wide use of Bluetooth

  11. Big Picture – WLAN’s • WLAN – based on WiFi (802.11x) • Adoption rate increased worldwide • Up 51% more units sold globally in 2004 compared to 2003 (source: Infonetics Research) • European cities’ infrastructure facilitates the adoption of WiFi against wired alternatives • Old buildings • High population density • Poor telecommunications infrastructure • Wi-Fi mesh infrastructure: • Current backend implementations of Wi-Fi mesh infrastructure are based on proprietary solutions • Usage: wireless coverage of WLANs, blanketing large areas with hot-spot coverage • Coverage: 100m to 10km • Data rate:54Mbps- 100Mbps

  12. Big Picture –WMAN’s • WiMax (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) • Standards-based technology • Deployment of broadband wireless networks based on the IEEE 802.16 standard • Enables the delivery of last mile wireless broadband access as an alternative to cable and DSL • Some characteristics of the 802.16- 2004 standard: • Improve user connectivity • Higher quality of services • Full support for WMAN service • Robust carrier-class operation

  14. 3.- Wireless technologies Basics Applications The physical media Free-space loss and frequency dependency The IEEE 802 specification family Comparison between different wireless technologies (PHY and MAC layers) IEEE 802.11 Bluetooth

  15. Antennas basics • Directional Antenna • "An antenna having the property of radiating or receiving electromagnetic waves more effectively in some directions than others". • Omni-Directional Antenna • "A hypothetical, lossless antenna having equal radiation intensity in all directions". For a WLAN antenna, the gain in dBi is referenced to that of an omni-directional (isotropic) antenna (which is defined as 0 dBi). YAGI Directional Antenna

  16. Directional antennas Yagi antenna (13,5 dBi) reach: 6 Km at 2 Mb/s 2 Km at 11 Mb/s Parabolic antenna (20 dBi) reach: 10 Km at 2 Mb/s 4,5 Km at 11 Mb/s

  17. More antennas examples Horizontal Radiation

  18. ISM frequency bands ISM (Industrial, Scientific and Medical) frequency bands: • 900 MHz band (902 … 928 MHz) • 2.4 GHz band (2.4 … 2.4835 GHz) • 5.8 GHz band (5.725 … 5.850 GHz) Anyone is allowed to use radio equipment for transmitting in these bands (provided specific transmission power limits are not exceeded) without obtaining a license.

  19. ISM frequency band at 2.4 GHz The ISM band at 2.4 GHz can be used by anyone as long as (in Europe...) Transmitters using FH (Frequency Hopping) technology: • Total transmission power < 100 mW • Power density < 100 mW / 100 kHz ETSI EN 300 328-1 requirements Transmitters using DSSS technology: • Total transmission power < 100 mW • Power density < 10 mW / 1 MHz

  20. Free-space loss The free-space loss L of a radio signal is: where d is the distance between transmitter and receiver,  is the rf wavelength, f is the radio frequency, and c is the speed of light. The formula is valid for d >> , and does not take into account antenna gains (=> Friis formula) or obstucting elements causing additional loss.

  36. BSS AP WLAN LAN The Extended Service Set (ESS) Distribution System (DS) • The standard does not define the implementation details • exists a proposal by a group of industries:Inter-acces point protocol (IAPP)

  37. Task Group f • Scope of Project: to develop recommended practices for an Inter-Access Point Protocol (IAPP) which provides the necessary capabilities to achieve multi-vendor Access Point interoperability across a Distribution System supporting IEEE P802.11 Wireless LAN Links. • Purpose of  Project: ... including the concepts of Access Points and Distribution Systems. Implementation of these concepts where purposely not defined by P802.11 ... As 802.11 based systems have grown in popularity, this limitation has become an impediment to WLAN market growth. This project proposes to specify the necessary information that needs to be exchanged between Access Points to support the P802.11 DS functions. The information exchanges required will be specified for, one or more Distribution Systems; in a manner sufficient to enable the implementation of Distribution Systems containing Access Points from different vendors which adhere to the recommended practices • Status: Work has been completed and is now part of the Standard as a recommended practice.
