    EEE 171 Lab #1 1 Laboratory #1: Transmission Line Characteristics I. OBJECTIVES Coaxial and twisted pair cables are analyzed. The results of the analyses are experimentally verified using a network analyzer. S11 and S21 are found in addition to the characteristic impedance of the transmission lines. II. INTRODUCTION Two commonly encountered transmission lines are the coaxial and twisted pair cables. Coaxial cables are found in broadcast, cable TV, instrumentation, high-speed computer network, and radar applications, among others. Twisted pair cables are commonly found in telephone, computer interconnect, and other low speed (<10 MHz) applications. There is some discussion on using twisted pair cable for higher bit rate computer networking applications (>10 MHz).

  • Low-Cost Manufacturing, Usability, and Security: an Analysis of Bluetooth Simple Pairing and Wi-Fi Protected Setup
    Low-cost Manufacturing, Usability, and Security: An Analysis of Bluetooth Simple Pairing and Wi-Fi Protected Setup Cynthia Kuo Jesse Walker Adrian Perrig Carnegie Mellon University Intel Corporation Carnegie Mellon University [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Abstract. Bluetooth Simple Pairing and Wi-Fi Protected Setup spec- ify mechanisms for exchanging authentication credentials in wireless net- works. Both Simple Pairing and Protected Setup support multiple setup mechanisms, which increases security risks and hurts the user experience. To improve the security and usability of these specifications, we suggest defining a common baseline for hardware features and a consistent, in- teroperable user experience across devices. 1 Introduction Bluetooth- and Wi-Fi-enabled devices are increasingly common. Already, manu- facturers ship around 10 million Bluetooth units and 4 million Wi-Fi units each week [1, 2]. Inevitably, consumers will perform security-sensitive transactions – including financial transactions – over Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. Thus, institutions should demand a basic level of assurance: that these technologies do not expose their systems or their customers’ accounts to additional risks. This implies that (1) the security mechanisms in Bluetooth and Wi-Fi should be at least as strong as the rest of the system; and (2) the mechanisms should be easy to use so that consumers can configure and use them correctly. We evaluate the security and usability of setup in the Bluetooth SIG’s Simple Pairing specification (August 2006) [3] and the Wi-Fi Alliance’s Protected Setup specification (released December 2006) [4]. These specifications were developed with two goals in mind: first, to make the technologies easy for non-expert users; and second, to address vulnerabilities in earlier versions of the technology.

  • Build a Superior Customer Experience Around Small Cells
    BUILD A SUPERIOR CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE AROUND SMALL CELLS REDUCE COSTS, BOOST CUSTOMER LOYALTY AND INCREASE ARPU WITH SOLUTIONS THAT STREAMLINE SMALL CELL OPERATIONS AND IMPROVE CUSTOMER CARE STRATEGIC WHITE PAPER Small cell technologies bring network operators new opportunities to address surging mobile data traffic, increasing indoor mobile device use and growing expectations relative to quality of experience (QoE). However, small cells also bring new levels of complexity to network deployment, operations and maintenance processes. To seize the small cell opportunity, operators need solutions that can take cost and complexity out of the network while delivering the superior QoE that enterprise and residential customers demand. On the operations side, this calls for solutions that can manage devices and services, handle diverse access technologies and work effectively in multivendor networks. On the customer side, it calls for solutions that can sustain a high QoE by supporting better and more proactive customer care. TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction / 1 Using small cells to address mobile data growth / 1 Small cells bring new opportunities and challenges / 3 Building toward small cell standards / 5 Delivering a Superior Small Cell Experience / 6 Enhancing network performance / 6 Enhancing the customer experience / 7 Conclusion / 8 Abbreviations / 8 INTRODUCTION Mobile users are consuming more data than ever, but network operator revenues have failed to keep pace. The growing gap between mobile traffic and mobile revenue has operators searching for solutions that will allow them to plan and utilize their network deployments more efficiently. The current technology evolution path may not support prevailing traffic trends. Today, mobile data traffic growth stems mainly from residential and enterprise users who use their devices indoors.
