Abstract
IEEE 802 Wireless systems have become a serious competitor to cellular radio systems, for low cost nomadic Internet access, at least in offices, at home and in public hot spots. At the same time, the wireless communication sector has grown to an important industry providing a basis for our communications society. In the next decade, 802 wireless systems will become an integral part of fourth generation (4G) cellular communication systems, where the convergence of wireless and mobile networks will materialize through support of interworking and seamless roaming across wireless and cellular radio access technologies. Besides that, peer-to-peer communication across wireless ad-hoc networks will evolve. Extremely high-data rates, driven by technology progress, under transmit power constraints transmitted in bands of 3.5 to 5 GHz will reduce the coverage range of Access Points (AP) in comparison to current systems, substantially. Multi-hop relaying will be required to trade the high capacity available at APs against range of radio coverage and wireless mesh networks will be needed to connect APs to the Internet.
Spectrum will become even more scarce forcing future high-density multi-hop networks to apply coexistence rules that will become an essential part of any wireless system standard, to ease systems co-operation on the same radio channel using distributed control. Cognitive radios and spectrum sharing will be key for the success of future wireless and mobile networks.
