The Wireless Revolution

Cellular is the fastest growing sector of communication industry (exponential growth since 1982, with over 2 billion users worldwide today)

Three generations of wireless First Generation (1G): Analog 25 or 30 KHz FM,

voice only, mostly vehicular communication Second Generation (2G): Narrowband TDMA and

CDMA, voice and low bit-rate data, portable units.2.5G increased data transmission capabilities

Third Generation (3G): Wideband TDMA and CDMA, voice and high bit-rate data, portable units

Bluetooth

Cable replacement RF technology (low cost)

Short range (10m, extendable to 100m)2.4 GHz band (crowded)1 Data (700 Kbps) and 3 voice channels

Widely supported by telecommunications, PC, and consumer electronics companies

Few applications beyond cable replacement

Ultrawideband Radio (UWB)

UWB is an impulse radio: sends pulses of tens of picoseconds(10-12) to nanoseconds (10-9)

Duty cycle of only a fraction of a percent

A carrier is not necessarily needed

Uses a lot of bandwidth (GHz)

Low probability of detection

Excellent ranging capability

Multipath highly resolvable: good and badCan use OFDM to get around multipath problem.

Why is UWB Interesting?

Unique Location and Positioning properties1 cm accuracy possible

Low Power CMOS transmitters100 times lower than Bluetooth for same range/data

rate

Very high data rates possible500 Mbps at ~10 feet under current regulations

7.5 Ghz of “free spectrum” in the U.S.FCC recently legalized UWB for commercial useSpectrum allocation overlays existing users, but its

allowed power level is very low to minimize interference

“Moore’s Law Radio”Data rate scales with the shorter pulse widths made

possible with ever faster CMOS circuits

IEEE 802.15.4 / ZigBee Radios

Low-Rate WPAN Data rates of 20, 40, 250 kbps Star clusters or peer-to-peer operation Support for low latency devices CSMA-CA channel access Very low power consumption Frequency of operation in ISM bands

Focus is primarily on radio and access techniques

Emerging Systems

Ad hoc wireless networks

Sensor networks

Distributed control networks

Ad-Hoc Networks

Peer-to-peer communications. No backbone infrastructure. Routing can be multihop. Topology is dynamic. Fully connected with different link

SINRs

Design Issues Ad-hoc networks provide a flexible network

infrastructure for many emerging applications.

The capacity of such networks is generally unknown.

Transmission, access, and routing strategies for ad-hoc networks are generally ad-hoc.

Crosslayer design critical and very challenging.

Energy constraints impose interesting design tradeoffs for communication and networking.

Sensor NetworksEnergy is the driving

constraint

Nodes powered by nonrechargeable batteriesData flows to centralized location.Low per-node rates but up to 100,000 nodes.Data highly correlated in time and space.Nodes can cooperate in transmission,

reception, compression, and signal processing.

Energy-Constrained Nodes

Each node can only send a finite number of bits.Transmit energy minimized by maximizing bit timeCircuit energy consumption increases with bit time Introduces a delay versus energy tradeoff for each bit

Short-range networks must consider transmit, circuit, and processing energy.Sophisticated techniques not necessarily energy-

efficient. Sleep modes save energy but complicate networking.

Changes everything about the network design:Bit allocation must be optimized across all protocols.Delay vs. throughput vs. node/network lifetime tradeoffs.Optimization of node cooperation.

Spectrum Regulation

Spectral Allocation in US controlled by FCC (commercial) or OSM (defense)

FCC auctions spectral blocks for set

applications.

Some spectrum set aside for universal use

Worldwide spectrum controlled by ITU-R

Regulation can stunt innovation, cause economicdisasters, and delay system rollout

Standards Interacting systems require standardization

Companies want their systems adopted as standardAlternatively try for de-facto standards

Standards determined by TIA/CTIA in USIEEE standards often adoptedProcess fraught with inefficiencies and

conflicts

Worldwide standards determined by ITU-TIn Europe, ETSI is equivalent of IEEE

Main Points

The wireless vision encompasses many exciting systems and applications

Technical challenges transcend across all layers of the system design.

Cross-layer design emerging as a key theme in wireless.

Existing and emerging systems provide excellent quality for certain applications but poor interoperability.

Standards and spectral allocation heavily impact the evolution of wireless technology
