  18. Why is it so popular? • Flexible • Low cost • Easy to deploy • Support mobility

  19. Applications ? • Ubiquitous, Pervasive computing or nomadic access. • Ad hoc networking: Where it is difficult or impossible to set infrastructure. • LAN extensions: Robots or industrial equipment communicate each others. Sensor network where elements are two many and they can not be wired!. • Sensor Networks: for monitoring, controlling, e

  20. Infostations • Mobile hosts traveling through fixed network • Good for periodic download or upload of bulky data • Wireless islands (interconnected by wired network) • Gas stations • Here and there on the freeway • Possibly an invisible infrastructure with mobile-aware applications • In reality, you may need to know to go to it • Original paper assumes this: information kiosks • Coverage is spotty • Cost is lower than complete coverage

  21. Ad hoc networks • Collection of wireless mobile nodes dynamically forming a temporary network without the use of any existing network infrastructure or centralized administration. • Hop-by-hop routing due to limited range of each node • Nodes may enter and leave the network • Usage scenarios: • Military • Disaster Relief • Temporary groups of participants (conferences)

  22. Sensor networks • Deployment of small, usually wireless sensor nodes. • Collect data, stream to central site • Maybe have actuators • Hugely resource constrained • Internet protocols have implicit assumptions about node capabilities • Power cost to transmit each bit is very high relative to node battery lifetime • Loss / etc., like other wireless • Ad-hoc: Deployment is often somewhat random

  23. Ad hoc networks, continued • Very mobile – whole network may travel • Applications vary according to purpose of network • No pre-existing infrastructure. Do-it-yourself infrastructure • Coverage may be very uneven

  24. Networked Embedded Computers • Connected to network • send and/or receive • May be embedded only for network access • networked appliances • sensors Network • historical sites & other locations

  25. Embedded Peer • Composite devices (HW+SW) • security system • Distributed composites vs. hardwired devices • client-defined composites • reuse of constituents Network • ease of change • extendibility & scalability

  26. Networked Embedded Computers • Issues • Late binding • Naming • Discovery • IPC • User-interface deployment • Multi-appliance control • Access control • Existing social protocols not supported by existing mechanisms • All co-located users can use appliance • Restriction to contents per user Network

  27. Location-Aware Computing • Motivation • location-based action • nearby local printer, doctor • nearby remote phone • directions/maps • location-based information • real • person’s location • history/sales/events • virtual • walkthrough • story of city • augmented • touring machine

  28. Pose-Aware Computing • Operations based on locations and orientations of users and devices • Motivation • Augmented reality

  29. Wearable Pose-Aware Computers • Computers on body • track body relative movements • monitor person • train person

  30. Location Sensor Mobile Embedded Interactive Flight Simulator Active badge Wearable Beyond Desktops/Servers

  31. Summary • Need to be connected from everywhere and anytime. • Need to be connected on movement • Need to good quality service on those situation. • Interworking with the existing networks

  32. Classification of Wireless Networks • Mobility: fixed wireless or mobile • Analog or digital • Ad hoc (decentralized) or centralized (fixed base stations) • Services: voice (isochronous) or data (asynchronous) • Ownership: public or private

  33. Classification of Wireless Networks • Area: wide (WAN), metropolitan (MAN), local (LAN), or personal (PAN) area networks • Switched (circuit- or packet-switched) or broadcast • Low bit-rate (voice grade) or high bit-rate (video, multimedia) • Terrestrial or satellite

  34. What is special on wireless? • Channel characteristics • Half-Duplex • Location dependency • Very noisy channel, fading effects, etc., • Resource limitation • Bandwidth • Frequency • Battery, power. • Wireless problems are usually optimization problems.

  35. What is special on wireless? • Mobility in the network elements • Very diverse applications/devices. • Connectivity and coverage (internetworking) is a problem. • Maintaining quality of service over very unreliable links • Security (privacy, authentication,...) is very serious here. Broadcast media. • Cost efficiency

  36. Big issues! • Integration with existing data networks sounds very difficult. • It is not always possible to apply wired networks design methods/principles here.

  37. Internet Design Goals • Connect existing networks • initially ARPANET and ARPA packet radio network • Survivability • ensure communication service even in the presence of network and router failures • Support multiple types of services • Must accommodate a variety of networks • Allow distributed management • Allow host attachment with a low level of effort • Allow resource accountability

  38. Problems • Host mobility is not considered in the design. • There is a hierarchal design. How Ad hoc wireless networks can be handled • A layered design. Layer should be independent of each other. It is not work at all in wireless • TCP • Battery shortages; • Etc,.

  39. Disconnection / store & forward • Many Internet protocols assume frequent connectivity • What if your node is only on the Internet for 5 minutes every 6 hours? • How do you browse the web? • Receive SMTP-based email?

  40. High availbility requirements • No QoS assumed from below • Reasonable but non-zero loss rates • What’s minimum recovery time? • 1 RTT • But conservative assumptions end-to-end • TCP RTO • Interconnect independent networks • Federation makes things harder: • My network is good. Is yours? Is the one in the middle working? • Scale • Routing convergence times, etc.

  41. Trends • Multimedia over IP networks • Next Generation Internet with features for “soft” QoS • RSVP, Class-based Queuing, Link Scheduling • Voice over IP networks • Packet Voice and Video • RTP and ALF • Intelligence shifts to the network edges • Better, more agile software-based voice and video codecs • Programmable intelligence inside the network • Proxy servers intermixed with switching infrastructure • Java code: “write once, run anywhere” Implications for cellular network infrastructure of the 21st century?

  42. Issues • Scalability • Must scale to support hundreds of thousands of simultaneous users in a region. • Functionality • Computer-phone integration • Real-time, multipoint/multicast, location-aware services, security • Home networking, “active” spaces, sensors/actuators

  43. Issues(2) • Leverage evolving IP traffic models • Provisioning the network for the extrapolated traffic and services • Proactive Infrastructure • Computing resources spread among switching infrastructure • Computationally intensive services: e.g., voice-to-text • Service and server discovery

  44. Wireless Differences 1 • Physical layer: signals travel in open space • Subject to interference • From other sources and self (multipath) • Creates interference for other wireless devices • Noisy  lots of losses • Channel conditions can be very dynamic

  45. Wireless Differences 2 • Need to share airwaves rather than wire • Don’t know what hosts are involved • Hosts may not be using same link technology • Interaction of multiple transmitters at receiver • Collisions, capture, interference • Use of spectrum: limited resource. • Cannot “create” more capacity easily • More pressure to use spectrum efficiently

  46. Wireless Differences 3 • Mobility • Must update routing protocols to handle frequent changes • Requires hand off as mobile host moves in/out range • Changes in the channel conditions. • Coarse time scale: distance/interference/obstacles change • Fine time scale: Doppler effect • Other characteristics of wireless • Slow

  47. Growing Application Diversity Collision Avoidance:Car Networks Mesh Networks Wired Internet Access Point Sensor Relay Node Ad-Hoc/Sensor Networks Wireless Home Multimedia

  48. Challenge: Diversity Wireless Edge Network INTERNET INTERNET • New architectures must accommodate rapidly evolving technology • Must accommodate different optimization goals • Power, coverage, capacity, price Wireless Edge Network 2005 2010

  49. Spectrum Scarcity • Interference and unpredictable behavior • Need better management/diagnosis tools • Lack of isolation between deployments • Cross-domain and cross-technology Why is my 802.11 not working?

  50. Other Challenges • Performance: Nothing is really working well • Security: It is a broadcast medium • Cross layer interception • TCP performance
