WIRELESS ARCHITECTURE
BEFORE INVENT OF WIRELESS TECHNOLOGY
Before the invention of wireless technology .There was wired
technology where devices were connected with wires.
Wired devices have more security when compared to wireless.
The user needs to be present at system in order to communicate with
other devices.
1.3 ADVANTAGES AND DISADAVNTAGES
ADAVANTAGES
1. Increased Efficiency: Improved data communications leads to
faster transfer of information within business and between partners
and customers
2. Access and Availability: Wireless technology allows user to
communicate while on the move, you are rarely out of touch-you
don't need extra cables or adaptors to access office network.
3. Flexibility: Office based wireless workers can network without
sitting at dedicated computers and can continue to do productive work
while away from office.
4. Cost Savings: Wireless networks can be easier and cheaper to
install.
DISADVANTAGES
1. Security: Wireless transmission is more exposed to attack by
unauthorised users.
2. Installation Problems: Experience interference if other in same
building also uses wireless technology.
3. Transmission Speeds: Wireless transmission can be slower and less
efficient than 'wired 'networks.
4. Coverage: In some buildings getting consistent coverage can be
difficult, leading to 'black spots' where the signal isn't available.
APPLICATIONS OF WIRLESS TECHNOLOGY
Wireless technology is becoming an integral part of our everyday life.
Recent advances in networking technology have enabled portable
computing devices to link up with servers through wireless
networking.
Some of the applications are:
1. GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM (GPS)
2. BLUETOOTH
3. WI-FI (WIRELESS-FEDILITY)
4. ZIGBEE
5. SATELLITE COMMUNICATIONS
6. NEAR-FIELD COMMUNICATIONS (NFC)
CHAPTER-2
What is GPS?
Fig 2.1
Fig 2.2
Fig2.3
Improbable as it may seem, the whole idea behind GPS is to use
satellites in space as reference points for locations here on earth.
Next, we measure our distance to a second satellite and find out that
it's 12,000 miles away. That tells us that we're not only on the first
sphere but we're also on a sphere that's 12,000 miles from the second
satellite. Or in other words, we're somewhere on the circle where
these two spheres intersecting.
If we then make a measurement from a third satellite and find that
we're 13,000 miles from that one that narrows our position down even
further, to the two points where the 13,000 mile sphere cuts through
the circle that's the intersection of the first two spheres.
So by ranging from three satellites we can narrow our position to just
two points in space.
Fig2.4 Fig2.5
We saw in the last section that a position is calculated from distance
measurements to at least three satellites. In the case of GPS we're
measuring a radio signal so the velocity is going to be the speed of
light or roughly 186,000 miles per second.
These two versions would be out of sync. The version coming from
the satellite would be a little delayed because it had to travel more
than 11,000 miles. If we wanted to see just how delayed the satellite's
version was, we could start delaying the receiver's version until they
fell into perfect sync.
The amount we have to shift back the receiver's version is equal to
the travel time of the satellite's version. So we just multiply that time
time the speed of light and BINGO! We've got our distance to the
satellite.

GPS Master Plan
The launch of the 24th block II satellite in March of 1994 completed
the GPS constellation.
Four additional satellites are in reserve to be launched "on need."
The spacing’s of the satellites are arranged so that a minimum of five
satellites are in view from every point on the globe.
Putting GPS to work
Fig2.9
GPS technology has matured into a resource that goes far beyond its
original design goals. These days scientists, sportsmen, farmers,
soldiers, pilots, surveyors, hikers, delivery drivers, sailors,
dispatchers, lumberjacks, fire-fighters, and people from many other
Walks of life are using GPS in ways that make their work more
productive, safer, and sometimes even easier.
In this section you will see a few examples of real-world applications
of GPS.
These applications fall into three broad categories.
Location - determining a basic position
Navigation - getting from one location to another
Timing - bringing precise timing to the world
APPLICATIONS
Natural Resource Application:
Natural resource specialists, such as foresters, geologists,
geographers, and biologists, use GPS mapping systems to record GPS
position and attribute information. For example, foresters record,
attribute information about age, health, quantity, and type of timber.
Urban Application:
Urban application of GPS mapping systems includes mapping
transportation and utility infrastructure. Streets and highways are
digitized by driving along the roads while recording the GPS
positions.
Agricultural Mapping:
GPS mapping systems help delineate field characteristics for farming.
Microclimates, soil types, crop stress, weed infestations, plant
Diseases, insect damage, and crop yield are recorded and referenced
directly to this location.
WI-FI
INTRODUCTION
Security:
Wireless security is important and all Wi-Fi wireless networks
provide wired equivalent privacy (WEP) a basic encryption
technology that can prevent eavesdropping.
Some Wi-Fi certified access points or gateways also provide access
control function to restrict access to Wi-Fi network.
WEP is designed to make the security of the wireless medium equal
to that of a wired medium. WEP encryption prevents unauthorized
access to the network as well as the capture of wireless LAN traffic.
WEP uses a shared key system, whereby both the wireless enabled
computer and the access points are given the same key string, and the
device without this key is denied access.
ADVANTAGES
DISADVANTAGES
1. Roaming and Billing problem: When user hand off from one
carrier to another it is not transparent to user. Due to this user have
to pay different charges
.
2. Due to 2.4GHz band microwave ovens are major source of
interference.
3. Due to many wireless devices using this band high congestion
occurs
.
4. Because it is unlicensed additional applications may target this
band in future.
APPLICATIONS:-
BLUETOOTH
Bluetooth is an industrial specification for wireless personal area
networks (PAN), through a short range radio technology. Bluetooth
wireless technology makes it possible to transmit signals over short
ranges and exchange information and thereby simplify
communication and synchronization between devices between
devices like mobile phones, laptops, PCs, printers, digital cameras.

Bluetooth chip
Bluetooth provides a short range wireless communication between
devices making it convenient for users and thus eliminating the need
for messy cables.
How it works
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless technology used to create PANs
(Personal Area Networks) among your devices and with other nearby
devices. Bluetooth requires that a low-cost transceiver chip be
included in each device. Connections can be point-to-point or
multipoint. The maximum range is 10 meters. Data can be
exchanged at a rate of 1 megabit per second.
Bluetooth can connect up to eight devices simultaneously. With all of
those devices in the same 10-meter. It doesn't require line of sight
between communicating devices.
Ad Hoc Networking:
A device equipped with a Bluetooth radio can establish instant
connection to another Bluetooth radio as soon as it comes into range
.Ad hoc networking means the network that forms immediately based
on the instruction or the information.
Cable replacement:
1. Simplicity:
2. Wireless:
It allows you to stay cord free and do not have to worry about finding
the correct place to connect that extra long cord.
Travel:
The travel industry is always seeking new ways to save time and
enhance convenience for travelers. Here we present a few ways in
which Bluetooth wireless technology could enhance travel scenarios.
