• Berkeley Infopad Goals: 100 Mbit/sec for 50 users Version 1: We decided to use a commercially-available RF modem even though it deviates substantially from the long term plan for the InfoPad wireless link described in [She92, She94]. The link for the IPGraphics prototype used a half-duplex, 1 Mbps RF modem: the DE6003, from GEC Plessey. It was chosen because it had the highest data rate of commercially available radio modems, in a form factor that we could place in the IPGraphics unit The DE6003 (Figure 4) provides a demodulated signal to the baseband receiver, implemented in a Xilinx 4000 FPGA, without any explicit timing information or attached protocol.

• AirShare
  The AirShare modules are about the size of a pack of cigs. One is AC powered and attaches to the serial port of the fixed-device (like a desktop PC, or for me, a modem). The other can either be powered by an AC adapter, a little 9V battery, or if your mobile device supports it, a PS/2 mouse-port. It also attaches to the serial port. You can select one of three different communication channels (for up to three machines you wish to talk to). It uses frequencies up in the 900MHz range, supports up to 115K bps, and distances of up to about 30ft. A 27 page Acrobat datasheet is available at: http://www.natsemi.com in the "Communications, Wireless" directory. Contact support@tevm2.nsc.com for any questions about the modules. They are sold in sets by Traveling Software. The set contains two modules, a battery pack, PS/2 mouse/kbd 'piggy back' power adapter and an AC adapter.

  Last year, a consortium of industry leaders, the Infra Red Data Association, agreed on a standard for infrared data transmission, Protocol 1.0. This low power standard transmits data at speeds up to 115.2-Kbps within a three-meter range. To implement the protocol, IrDA estimates it will only cost $2 to $4 per unit.

Netweek: Wireless LAN yields horizontal mobility [0.8406]

Outline: Wireless LAN yields horizontal mobility

Abstract: October 16, 1995 What PC Week Labs learned when we cut the 10BaseT cables and went wireless By Terry Tam Wireless LANs cut traditional wired ties between a workstation and hub, bringing mobility to movers and shakers and forcing a paradigm shift in how IS managers view their world. Not to be confused with the more popular cellular modem market (linking to RadioMail or WyndMail, for instance), spread-spectrum wireless technologies are designed for connectivity to a LAN or for the... Wireless LANs provide the same benefits of continuous connectivity to the corporate backbone as cellular modems, only a wireless LAN rescues corridor cruisers rather than road warriors.
