1 WiMAX at the University of Wisconsin-Madison A Programmable Facility for Experimentation with Wireless Heterogeneity and Wide-area Mobility

2 Mobility Limitations Possible Solutions WiRover GENI Overview

3 Mobility a necessity o Multiple technologies to help out o Maybe work with 3G o Most work with Wi-Fi Mobility

4 3G & WiFi 3G Cellular coverage o Inconsistent o Low throughput Wi-Fi o Low coverage area o High throughput

5 WiMAX o High coverage area o High throughput GENI WiMAX Solution o Utilize all available technologies

6 Multi interface o Cellular, WiMAX, and Wi-Fi Main controller o Data collection mechanism o Ensures persistent data connection o Provides bandwidth aggregation Gateway acts as Wi-Fi AP WiRover

7 Increase in new users Positive feedback from users Highlighted in newspapers Working with EMS for system in ambulances WiRover Reception 1 st Place in 2011Wisconsin Governor’s Business Plan Contest

8 GENI Capabilities WiMAX o Live demo WiRover box with Intel 6250 (WiMAX) o OMF / OML server running for experimentation o Stationary node setup at UW Madison o Experimentation on a mobile platform that has many real users o High speed internet to mobile devices capable of running OMF experiments In the near future o Connection to OpenFlow and GENI backbone o Handoff experiments between base stations o 3 additional base stations
