TLDR
The article considers the network layer by discussing extensions that are being made to the widely used Internet protocol (IP) to deal with mobility (wired or wireless) and speculating on future directions for wireless LAN systems.Abstract:
The emerging widespread use of wireless LAN systems together with the users' desire for such systems to interoperate has created a requirement for standards. Many standards bodies are currently defining standards for wireless systems that relate to different layers of the networking protocol stack. Of these, two influential physical and data link layer standards, IEEE 802.11 and the European HIPERLAN, are described. The article then considers the network layer by discussing extensions that are being made to the widely used Internet protocol (IP) to deal with mobility (wired or wireless). The final standards that are discussed relate to wireless link management. The article concludes by speculating on future directions for wireless LAN systems.read more

Normal-incidence transmission of radio waves through building materials in the 5.8 GHz frequency band
TL;DR: In this article, normal incidence broadband transmission measurements across different building materials have been made in the 5.8 GHz frequency band, and transmission coefficients have been computed, showing that a single sample is not enough to obtain a good characterization, and confidence bands are needed.

Channel estimation using short training sequences
TL;DR: A maximum likelihood channel estimation method, which uses the known spreading sequences together with short training sequences, is considered for synchronous CDMA systems.

D/sup 2/MA: a distributed access protocol for wireless ATM networks
TL;DR: The main purpose of this paper is to assess the feasibility of the distributed control approach in the definition of a wireless ATM MAC protocol, named D/sup 2/MA, based on a double distribution of the access procedure and queueing capabilities.

Modeling and prediction of session throughput of constant bit rate streams in wireless data networks
Liang Cheng,Ivan Marsic +1 more
TL;DR: By statistical study, this research shows that session throughputs in wireless data networks can be modeled and predicted to a useful degree from past values by using linear time series analysis such as AR and WM models.

The Theory of Error-Correcting Codes
TL;DR: This book presents an introduction to BCH Codes and Finite Fields, and methods for Combining Codes, and discusses self-dual Codes and Invariant Theory, as well as nonlinear Codes, Hadamard Matrices, Designs and the Golay Code.

Highly dynamic Destination-Sequenced Distance-Vector routing (DSDV) for mobile computers
TL;DR: The modifications address some of the previous objections to the use of Bellman-Ford, related to the poor looping properties of such algorithms in the face of broken links and the resulting time dependent nature of the interconnection topology describing the links between the Mobile hosts.
IP Mobility Support
TL;DR: This document specifies protocol enhancements that allow transparent routing of IP datagrams to mobile nodes in the Internet.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
TL;DR: Due to some errors introduced into RFC 1531 in the editorial process, this memo is reissued as RFC 1541.

Mobility support in IPv6
TL;DR: This document specifies Mobile IPv6, a protocol which allows nodes to remain reachable while moving around in the IPv6 Internet, and defines a new IPv6 protocol and a new destination option.
