IWS2005 Wednesday

IWS2005 Thursday
Broadband Rollout and the role of wireless, Steffen Ring, Director Motorola
IEEE802 has 3 categories, Wire line 802.1, 802.3, 802.21 , Wireless 802.11.802.15, 802.16, 802.20 and tech advisory 802.18, 802.19

DVB-H as Broadband Access Technology, Reza Tadayoni, CICT, Tech Univ Denmark,
Mobile and Broadcast Convergence
Inband – UMTS and GPRS e.g mibiTV
Hybrid – DVB-H, DMB (Korea), ISDB-T (Japan), MediaFLO (Qualcomm, US)
DVB-H up to 11Mb/s

BREAD project, Broadband access for all in Europe
Mention made of African Cantenna project

Rate Switching in 802.11e, dude from Toshiba
Currently, it is impossible to change the transmission rate during a burst because of Block ACK
4 algorithms proposed to solve the problem
1) link adaptation algorithm for Block ACK
Change and compare ratio of change of rate within a burst
2) Reduce the burst size
3)
4) A tail data packet with a higher rate is attached in every burst

Problem: 802.11 suffers from downlink throughput degradation when uplink traffic increases, cause: AP must transmit all downlink traffic and acquires the channel with the same probability as a single station, therefore to solve the prob, a new scheme is needed.
Solution: In the proposed scheme the AP has a single CSMA/CA function, this lowers prob of collision.
Proposed Scheme compared to DCF and Multiple CSMA/CA
After 26 station Multiple CSMA throughput drops
DCF and proposed scheme seem better, DCF drops off at 50

Current Frame burst handling of frame errors not efficient
Dymanic Queue prioritizing proposed.
Results show that after 30 stations, throughput decreases more in normal round robin than the proposed queue prioritization
