§ UMTS announced as capable of handling interactive video streaming for all users at 2 Mbps
Ø Thus, auctions for licensing 3G spectrum started Ø More than 100 Billion pounds paid in Europe alone
§ Companies that had never run a network before paid billions § Most companies now bankrupt
q 2001: Start of 3G systems Ø FOMA (Japan), UMTS (Europe) cdma2000 (Korea)
12
2000s q Early 2000s: New WLAN developments
Ø IEEE 802.11a: 5 GHz, up to 54 Mbps Ø IEEE 802.11g: 2.4 GHz, up to 54 Mbps Ø New Bluetooth applications:
§ Headsets, remote controls, wireless keyboards, hot syncing
q Deployment of 3G infrastructure (licensing pre-condition)
q Digital terrestrial TV: high quality, mobile, small antenna
q Next generation mobile and wireless systems: Ø Likely to be widely Internet based (IP protocols/apps) Ø Users will have choice of many different networks
q 2009: Netbooks, iphones, VoIPoWLAN, … q Latest: 802.11ac, 802.11ad, GigaIR, WUSB-UWB, …

Some Terminology
q Portable (hand-held, walk speed) vs mobile (vehicle speed)
q Base stations: mobiles communicate to fixed base stations Ø Connected to power source, and a backbone network
q Classification: Ø Simplex systems: e.g., paging systems
§ Messages are received, but not acknowledged. Ø Half-duplex systems: e.g., walkie-talkies
§ Allow two-way communication, but use same radio channel for both transmission and reception.
§ “push-to-talk”, “release-to-listen” Ø Full-duplex systems: e.g., US AMPS standard
§ Allow simultaneous radio transmission and reception § Provide two separate channels (frequency division duplex), or
adjacent time slot on a single channel (time division duplex)
20
Paging Systems
q Architecture: Ø Transmit the page throughout the service area using
base stations, which simultaneously broadcast the page on a radio carrier
Ø Reliability achieved using large transmission power (~kw) and low data rates (~Kbps)
q Service: Ø Send brief
messages to a subscriber
Ø Simplex, reliable communication

Cordless Telephony
q Full duplex in-home communication system Ø Radio connects portable handset to dedicated base
station, which is connected to a dedicated phone line •
q 2nd-generation systems cover up to 100s of meters Ø But no coverage outside range
22
Cellular Systems q Provides wireless connection to the PSTN for any user
location within the system range q Accommodate large number of users (using cells) over a
large geographic area (using handoffs), within a limited frequency spectrum
q Base station Ø Several antennas Ø Full duplex Ø Connects to MSC
q MSC: Ø Handles channel
allocation in base stations
Ø Involved in call initiation, termination, and handoff

Organizing the Structure
q Networks are diverse and complex Ø Many pieces and many designers
§ Hosts § Routers § Links of various media § Applications § Protocols § Hardware, software
Use layering for accommodating diversity and managing complexity

27
Why Layering? q Explicit structure allows identification, relationship of
complex system’s pieces
q Modularization eases maintenance, updating of system Ø Change of implementation of a layer transparent to rest
of system
q Standard, well-defined interfaces a must Ø Single, simple IP glues the Internet together
28
q Application layer Ø Supporting network applications
§ ftp, SMTP, HTTP
q Transport layer Ø Host-host data transfer
§ TCP, UDP
q Network layer Ø Routing of packets from source to
destination § IP, routing protocols
q Link layer Ø Data transfer between directly
connected network elements § Ethernet, 802.11, SONET, …
q Physical layer Ø The insertion of individual bits “on the wire”
