Mobile IP and wide area wireless data

In this paper we present techniques for allowing Mobile IP to interwork with wide area cellular networks. As an example, we illustrate a network consisting of a GSM General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) air interface and a Mobile IP backbone network. The advantage of such a solution is that the backbone network may easily be used to support integrated wireless and wired data transfer, and the lev...

Wide Area Wireless Networked Navigators_ICWN_Sabrina _6_.d..

Networked cooperative personnel and multiple manned/unmanned vehicles play important roles in the Future Combat System (FCS), Future Force Warrior, Future Special Operations Forces (SOF), Land Warrior and Homeland Defense applications. Multi-sensor fusion based navigation and high bandwidth wireless communications are two of the key techniques for these applications. The navigation system is re...

With the guidance of Professor Wendi B. Heinzelman, he has researched wireless communications protocols with a major focus into wide area networking. iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank my Advisor on m...

Wireless Wide Area Networks for School Districts

A wide area network (WAN) is a communications network utilizing devices such as telephone lines, satellite dishes, antennas, and microwaves to span a larger geographic area than can be covered by a local area network (LAN). Typically, a WAN consists of two or more LANs. A metropolitan area network, or MAN, is a term sometimes used to describe a system that falls somewhere between a WAN and LAN ...
