Wireless Data Network Infrastructure at Carnegie Mellon University

Abstract

This article describes the Wireless Andrew infrastructure we are building. We begin with an overview of the infrastructure and the characteristics of the two types of wireless networks we are using. Next, we describe in more detail each of these networks. We discuss the technology used, our implementation of it in our wireless network infrastructure, and our current deployment experience. Finally, we summarize the lessons we have learned and present conclusions. Overview of Infrastructure
