High Performance Wireless Research and Education Network An interdisciplinary collaboration University of California, San Diego http://hpwren.ucsd.edu/
HPWREN project objectives • focus on access networks for research and education applications • fixed or temporary installations • wide area wireless high performance access • emphasis on interdisciplinary collaboration • non-commercial prototype network to demonstrate feasibility • research to understand application performance requirements
Project participants and collaborators • Funded by the National Science Foundations Networking Division (ANIR) • Led by the UCSD’s San Diego Supercomputer Center and Scripps Institution of Oceanography • Science applications • Scripps Institution of Oceanography: • Geophysics -- earthquake sensors • San Diego State University, Astronomy department • Mt. Laguna Observatory • San Diego State University, Ecology • Ecology field stations (Santa Margarita and Sky Oaks) • Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and California Institute of Technology • Palomar Observatory • Education applications • Pala Indian Reservation and Pala Fire Station • La Jolla Indian Reservation • Rincon Indian Reservation • San Pasqual Indian Reservation • Hewlett Packard Digital Village award to the Southern California Tribal Chairmen’s Association • Collaborations with crisis management and other agencies
Network architecture • high performance backbone network • commercially available 45Mbps duplex point-to-point radios • backbone nodes at “quality” locations, including UPS • fairly large antennas (8’, 6’, or 4’) • network performance monitors at backbone sites • high speed access links • commercially available 802.11b radios • some 45Mbps access links • access nodes at individual sites • point-to-point or point-to-multipoint • small (~2’ X ~3’) grid antennas • some sites include local performance monitors • network statistics available at http://stat.hpwren.ucsd.edu/
