  11. Extension of the Range of an AP by a Fixed Relay Station with receive Antenna Gain The multi-hop concept scales extremly well and is able to trade the capacity of an AP against radio coverage range Throughput Envelope under LOS conditions and/or with receive antenna gain at APs and FWRs Throughput Envelope under NLOS conditions

  16. The Access Points of the WMS are invisible (embedded to existent infastructure) Fixed Wireless Relays are attached to existing infrastructure like - signals posts at intersections - street lamps in down-town. Connecting to existent mains supply, no wired connection to fixed communication network. FWRs provide a cellular multi-hop based invisible infra-structure for wireless/mobile broadband communication with low radio exposure to humans. The system is embedded to a B3G cellular system.

  20. Conclusions • A concept for a Mobile Broadband system based on Fixed Relay Stations is presented • Relaying (multi-hop communication) provideshigher link capacity for areas with heavy shadowing • Relaying in time and frequency domains as well as patterns for wide area urban deployment has been introduced • The very high capacity available from Mobile Broadband Systems is traded against radio range • Relays are excellently suited to provide radio coverage to otherwise shadowed areas

  21. Service Architecture for Relay Based Multi-hop Networks using SIP Bernhard H. Walke, Ian Herwono, Ralf Pabst, Daniel SchultzAachen University, Chair of Communication Networks ANWIRE Workshop, April 22, 2003, Glasgow, UK

  22. Objectives • Provide low cost public broadband wireless access to terminals with low to medium velocity of movement. • Provide a “virtually” continuous radio connectivity, even though radio coverage is discontinuous • Combine broadcast, multicast and single cast to minimize the number of transmissions needed to provide contents requested by users • Exploit already existing technologies for: • Fast session setup and re-establishment • Pushing content to terminals at very high data rate

  23. Integration with cellular Radio CellularIntegration provides: • easy support for multicast data • Localization (mobility prediction) • AAA • Fall-back (expensive)

  24. Media Points in City Areas Wireless Terminal Stationary Usage Media Point Access in Cars or Public Transports Data Transfer while Walking Intelligent Service Control Media Point Internet Media Point Controller • Fragmentary radio coverage with route-optimized data provisioning inside the public cellular infrastructure • Use of license-exempt frequency spectrum • Provisioning of a low cost public broadband wireless Internet access realizable, especially for non-interactive services, e.g. e-mails, accessing favorite web pages, online music access, etc. WLAN Coverage Area UMTS Cell

  25. Media Point System Requirements • Fast and reliable session setup and re-establishment (session continuation) • Presence and location awareness of mobile users • Mechanism to “push” personalized user data incl. e-mails, multimedia files, to mobile terminals at a high data rate • Mechanism to delete cached data after the data has been “pushed” to user terminal or after timeout • Configurable user preferences to control data push service

  26. Intelligent Service Control System Components • Intelligent Service Controller: • User profile management • Retrieve contents from the Internet servers • Unicast/multicast formatted contents to appropriate MP controllers • Updating terminals’ location & presence info (in Cooperation with cellular) • MP Controllers: • Radio connection establishment • Caching and pushing content to terminals • Transceivers: • Provisioning of the wireless interface to terminals

  27. SIP as a means of pushing data • Although SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) is primarily thought for signaling, it has the capabilities to carry everything (e.g. a HTML page) in its body with the use of MIME format. • * see, G. Pospischil, J. Stadler, and I. Miladinovic, “A location-based push architecture using SIP”, Wireless Personal Multimedia Communication 2001, Aalborg, Denmark.

  28. System Functionality and Scenario IntelligentService Control Predictive, preemptive caching strategies !?

  29. Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) for Media Point • SIP is an application-layer control protocol for the creation and termination of multimedia sessions • Each user is uniquely identified by its SIP address, for example: sip:username@mpsc.comnets.rwth-aachen.de • In the Wireless Media System SIP is used for: • User’s location and presence management by means of SUBSCRIBE, NOTIFY and REGISTER methods • Setup and termination of data push sessions by means of INVITE, ACK and BYE methods • Exchange of instant messages by means of MESSAGE method • A SIP User Agent (UA) is implemented in each system component (ISC, MPC, MT/Client) for handling the communications between the components • A SIP Presence Server (PS) is co-located in ISC for monitoring the presence and online status of each user

  30. Example: Mailbox Update Mechanism • A POP3 server is installed at MPSC and a local IMAP server is installed at client (laptop) • E-mails are downloaded by means of the “fetchmail” tool ISC Client/Laptop ComNets mail server Fetchmail POP3 server Fetchmail IMAP server E-mail client New mails Write to mailbox New mails New mails (headers) Write to mailbox

  31. Schematic Session Sequence • SIP-based signalling for "pushing" personalised data to a mobile terminal
