|
More wireless phones that wired phones.
|
|
More mobile broadband than fixed broadband
|
|
|
|
two different challenges
|
|
- communication over wireless link
|
|
- mobility: handling the mobile user to changes point of attachment
|
|
|
|
elements
|
|
- wireless hosts
|
|
- does not always mean mobile
|
|
- base station
|
|
- connected to wired network
|
|
- relay: sendig packets between wired network and wireless hosts in its "area"
|
|
- e.g., cell towers
|
|
- wireless link
|
|
- used to connect mobile to base station, also used as backbone link
|
|
- various transmission rates, distances, frequency bands
|
|
|
|
architecture
|
|
- infrastructure mode
|
|
- base station connect mobiles to wired network
|
|
- handoff: mobile changes base station
|
|
- ad hoc mode
|
|
- no base stations
|
|
- can only transmit to other nodes within link coverage
|
|
- nodes organize themselves into a network: route among themselves
|
|
|
|
wireless link
|
|
- deccreased signal strength: radio signal attentuates as it travels
|
|
- interference from other sources: frequency shared by other technologies
|
|
- multipath propagation: signal reflects of objects arriving at sightly different times
|
|
|
|
SNR BER tradeoffs
|
|
- SNR - signal to noise ratio
|
|
- larger SNR is easire to extract signal
|
|
- BER - bit error rate
|
|
- larger SNR => smaller BER
|
|
- many parameters at physical level which alter SNR
|
|
|
|
hidden terminal problem
|
|
- multiple wireless sender, recievers create additional problems (beyond multiple access):

# WLAN and wireless link
|
|
Standards created and maintaned by IEEE
|
|
- covers data link layer and physical layer
|
|

|
|
- all use CSMA/CA for multiple access, and have base station and ad-hoc versions
|
|
|
|
WLAN architecture
|
|
- wireless hosts communicates with base station (A)
