  1. The Data Link Layer Chapter 6: Wireless and Mobile Networks Our goals: Topics Background: � link layer services � understand principles � # wireless (mobile) phone subscribers now behind data link layer � error detection, correction exceeds # wired phone subscribers! services: � multiple access protocols and LANs � error detection, � computer nets: laptops, palmtops, PDAs, � link layer addressing, ARP, correction Internet-enabled phone promise anytime DHCP � sharing a broadcast � Ethernet untethered Internet access channel: multiple access � (Token Ring and FDDI) � link layer addressing � two important (but different) challenges � hubs and switches � reliable data transfer, flow control: done! � communication over wireless link � PPP � instantiation and � handling mobile user who changes point of implementation of various Today attachment to network link layer technologies � Wireless (and Mobile Networks) � Multimedia 7/5-07 Datakommunikation - Jonny Pettersson, UmU 7/5-07 Datakommunikation - Jonny Pettersson, UmU Chapter 6 outline Elements of a wireless network 6.1 Introduction Mobility wireless hosts � laptop, PDA, IP phone � 6.5 Principles: � run applications addressing and routing Wireless � may be stationary to mobile users � 6.2 Wireless links, (non-mobile) or mobile � 6.6 Mobile IP characteristics network � wireless does not infrastructure � 6.7 Handling mobility in always mean mobility � CDMA cellular networks � 6.3 IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs (“wi-fi”) � 6.8 Mobility and higher- layer protocols � 6.4 Cellular Internet Access � architecture 6.9 Summary � standards (e.g., GSM) 7/5-07 Datakommunikation - Jonny Pettersson, UmU 7/5-07 Datakommunikation - Jonny Pettersson, UmU Elements of a wireless network Elements of a wireless network base station wireless link � typically connected to � typically used to wired network connect mobile(s) to base station � relay - responsible for sending packets � also used as backbone between wired link network and wireless network network � multiple access host(s) in its “area” infrastructure infrastructure protocol coordinates � e.g., cell towers, link access 802.11 access � various data rates, points transmission distance 7/5-07 7/5-07 Datakommunikation - Jonny Pettersson, UmU Datakommunikation - Jonny Pettersson, UmU 1
