Historic shift from PCs to mobile computing and embedded devices >2B cell phones vs. 500M Internet-connected PCs in 2005 >400M cell phones with Internet capability, rising rapidly Sensor deployment just starting, but some estimates ~5-10B units by 2015 INTERNET Wireless Edge Network INTERNET ~500M server/PCs, ~100M laptops/PDAs ~750M servers/PCs, >1B laptops, PDAs, cell phones, sensors 2005 2010 Wireless Edge Network
Slide 5:Market Size
Wireless as the common case vs. the exception Laptop (54%) vs. desktop sales (46%) >2B cell phones vs. 500M Internet-connected PCs Estimates of ~5-10B wireless sensors by 2015 Rapid deployment of new technology Highly dynamic environment Must accommodate new/unexpected technologies 9 million hotspot users in 2003 (30 million in 2004) Approx 4.5 million WiFi access points sold in 3Q04 Sales will triple by 2009 Many more non-802.11 devices Staggering Market Statistics 7/2004 wardrive (802.11g standardized in 6/2003) According to IDC, some 8 million Wi-Fi access points were shipped in 2001, with that number expected to rise to 36 million units sold in 2006. Of that number, 802.11a product sales are projected to increase from 1 percent to 7 percent during the five-year period. In 3Q04, Wi-Fi unit shipments increased 12% from 2Q04. 10.99 million units shipped in 3Q04 compared to 9.82 million units in 2Q04. Strong growth segments included 802.11g NICs and APs. NIC unit shipments for 802.11g increased 14% from 5.07 million units in 2Q04 to 5.80 million units in 3Q04. AP unit shipments for 802.11g increased 30% to 3.55 million in 3Q04 from 2.74 million in 2Q04. The multimode NIC market saw healthy growth as well. Multimode NICs are capable of operating at 2.4GHz or 5GHz. Unit shipments for multimode NICs increased 21% from 2Q04. Revenue for multimode NICs increased 16%.Wi-Fi unit shipments are expected to decline slightly in 4Q04, due to the historically slower first quarter. However, in 2004, total Wi-Fi unit shipments are projected to show a healthy 24% gain from 2003. 214% increase in WiFi equipment in 2003According to IDC, some 8 million Wi-Fi access points were shipped in 2001, with that number expected to rise to 36 million units sold in 2006.

Slide 6:Why is it so popular?
Flexible Low cost Easy to deploy Support mobility
Slide 7:Implication: Market Size
Past efforts ? emphasis on adapting wireless nodes to support existing architecture Wireless TCP, Mobile IP, etc. Adoption of these evolutionary changes has lagged expectations Market size justifies more dramatic changes Broader architectural changes to support range of issues created by wireless systems Consider changes to Internet that may simplify future wireless system design
Slide 8:Growing Deployment Diversity

Slide 12:Spectrum Scarcity
Densities of unlicensed devices already high Spectrum is scarce ? will get worse Improve spectrum utilization (currently 10%) (Placelab: 28000 APs, MAC, ESSID, GPS) Data in placelab to understand how many APs in each city are in interference range of each other. Specigfically, we construct what we call interference grapsh Figure on the right shows a distribution of the number on interfering neighboring APs in the various cities. More than 4(Placelab: 28000 APs, MAC, ESSID, GPS) Data in placelab to understand how many APs in each city are in interference range of each other.

Slide 13:Spectrum Scarcity
Interference and unpredictable behavior Need better management/diagnosis tools Lack of isolation between deployments Cross-domain and cross-technology Why is my 802.11 not working?

Why Wireless Course Overview Administrivia
Slide 15:Wireless Differences 1
Physical layer: signals travel in open space Subject to interference From other sources and self (multipath) Creates interference for other wireless devices Noisy ? lots of losses Channel conditions can be very dynamic
Slide 16:Wireless Differences 2
Need to share airwaves rather than wire Dont know what hosts are involved Hosts may not be using same link technology Interaction of multiple transmitters at receiver Collisions, capture, interference Use of spectrum: limited resource. Cannot create more capacity very easily More pressure to use spectrum efficiently
Slide 17:Wireless Differences 3
Mobility Must update routing protocols to handle frequent changes Requires hand off as mobile host moves in/out range Changes in the channel conditions. Coarse time scale: distance/interference/obstacles change Fine time scale: Doppler effect Other characteristics of wireless Slow
