  • Analysis of Wifi and Wimax and Wireless Network Coexistence
    International Journal of Computer Networks & Communications (IJCNC) Vol.6, No.6, November 2014 ANALYSIS OF WIFI AND WIMAX AND WIRELESS NETWORK COEXISTENCE Shuang Song and Biju Issac School of Computing, Teesside University, Middlesbrough, UK ABSTRACT Wireless networks are very popular nowadays. Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) that uses the IEEE 802.11 standard and WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) that uses the IEEE 802.16 standard are networks that we want to explore. WiMAX has been developed over 10 years, but it is still unknown to most people. However compared to WLAN, it has many advantages in transmission speed and coverage area. This paper will introduce these two technologies and make comparisons between WiMAX and WiFi. In addition, wireless network coexistence of WLAN and WiMAX will be explored through simulation. Lastly we want to discuss the future of WiMAX in relation to WiFi. KEY WORDS WiMAX, WiFi, wireless network, wireless coexistence, network simulation 1. INTRODUCTION With the development of multimedia communication, people need wireless broadband access with higher speed, larger coverage and mobility. The emergence of WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) technology met the people's demand for wireless Internet to some extent. If wireless LAN technology (WLAN) solves the access problem of the "last one hundred meters", then WiMAX technology is the best access solution of the "last mile". Though WiMAX is an emerging and extremely competitive wireless broadband access technology, the development prospects of its market is still unknown. Hybrid networks as a supplement to cell based or IP packet based services, can fully reflect the characteristics of wide network coverage.

Personal area networks (PANs), networks that facilitate communications between devices within a short range, will be used to send and receive data and commands that fulfill an individual’s needs. This research determines the future prospects of PANs by examining success criteria, application areas and barriers/challenges. An initial set of issues in each of these three areas is identified from the literature. The Delphi Method is used to determine what experts believe what are the most important success criteria, application areas and barriers/challenges. Critical success factors that will determine the future of personal area networks include reliability of connections, interoperability, and usability. Key application areas include monitoring, healthcare, and smart things. Important barriers and challenges facing the deployment of PAN are security, interference and coexistence, and regulation and standards. i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Firstly, I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere gratitude to my supervisor – Associate Professor Dennis Viehland, for all his support and guidance during this research.

  • Performance of Light Fidelity and Wireless Fidelity Networks in a WLAN
    DOI : https://dx.doi.org/10.26808/rs.re.v4i1.02 International Journal of Research in Engineering & Science ISSN:(P) 2572-4274 (O) 2572-4304 Available online on http://rspublication.com/IJRES/IJRE.html volume 4 Issue 1 Jan.-Feb 2020 Performance of Light Fidelity and Wireless Fidelity Networks in a WLAN S.N. Arinze, G.N. Onoh and D.O. Abonyi Abstract Wireless Fidelity utilizes radio waves. Radio waves have limited bandwidth, fully exploited, and low speed. Light fidelity is a visible light communication used as a medium to carry high-speed data. It can complement the wireless fidelity in accessing the internet, thereby reducing congestion. In this work, a hybrid of light fidelity and wireless fidelity was carried out in an indoor environment. The geometry of the light fidelity access point and wireless fidelity access point was analyzed in the MatLab environment to know the highest power received by the user. Some ranges of received power considered for good reception wereassigned for each of the wireless access points in the MatLab program. Visual Basic, an object-oriented computer programming language, reads the signal coming from the communication port of light fidelity and wireless fidelity. It mimics the analyzed MatLab program of a hybrid network of light fidelity and wireless fidelity and connects to any of the wireless access points based on the set conditions of the satisfied received power. With these, the light fidelity can complement the limited available radio frequency. Index Terms—Light Fidelity, MatLab, Visual Basic, Wireless Fidelity. I. INTRODUCTION Wireless Fidelity network allows more than one device to communicate and share information within defined regions like office, home, and campus.

Copyright 2009, Acromag, Inc., Printed in the USA. Data and specifications are subject to change without notice. 8400-517 How to Remotely Access Ethernet I/O Over Internet This white paper details the steps needed to access your I/O module remotely over the internet. This can be done with Ethernet-enabled I/O modules that have the capability to display built-in webpage-based output monitoring. In other words, if your I/O module can serve a webpage over Ethernet, and the network it is connected to has internet access, then you can set it up to view your I/O from any internet connection around the world. Getting Started This white paper makes a few assumptions to simplify the steps needed to connect an Ethernet-enabled I/O module to the internet: You are connecting your I/O module to your company’s existing LAN network, which has access to the internet. Your company’s server or router, also connected to the network and internet, with either static or dynamic IP address assigned by the Internet Service Provider The Layers between Your I/O and the Internet To make an Ethernet-enabled module accessible from the internet, a rudimentary understanding is required of basic network architecture. A basic understanding of the structure of the internet is also very helpful. HTTP communicates over public IP Communicates over private IP addresses through port 80 by default addresses (10.x.x.x, 192.168.x.x, or port 443 for secure HTTPS 172.16.x.x-172.32.x.x) User Browser Internet Server Corporate Ethernet Network I/O or Module Router Firewall *firewall may be software installed on the router or a separate hardware Software Hardware Figure 1: The path from the module to the user 1 The Internet The internet is essentially a group of servers all connected together in a mesh configuration, each serving files, usually in HTML format, to the network.

  • Use Case Possibilities with Bluetooth Low Energy in Iot Applications White Paper
    Use case possibilities with Bluetooth low energy in IoT applications White paper Author Mats Andersson Senior Director Technology, Product Center Short Range Radio, u-blox Abstract With yearly shipments of more than 10 billion microcontrollers that all can exchange information locally or through the Internet, a huge variety of so called “intelligent devices” are enabled. All these devices can be accessed over the Internet and this evolution is commonly referred to as Internet of Things (IoT). IoT typically requires a local low power wireless connection along with the Internet connection. For most such applications and solutions, a gateway is required to connect sensor nodes to the Internet via a local infrastructure or using a cellular connection. Gateways are important components of the IoT vision. These gateways can be used to connect Bluetooth low energy devices to the Internet and can also be used as "repeaters" to extend the system range. This whitepaper describes how Bluetooth low energy technology works and how it can be used to connect devices to Internet-based services and applications. A significant feature in Bluetooth low energy compared to other IoT wireless technologies is the support for smartphones and tablets. The whitepaper thus also describes how a smartphone or tablet can be used in IoT. www.u-blox.com UBX-14054580 - R01 Use case possibilities with Bluetooth low energy in IoT applications - White paper Contents Contents .............................................................................................................................
