Gi-Fi: Next Generation Wireless Technology
Gi-Fi: Next Generation Wireless Technology
INTRODUCTION:
,Wi-Fi (ieee-802.11b) and WiMax (ieee-802.16e) have captured our attention.As there is no recent developments which transfer data at faster rate..as video information transfer taking lot of time.
This leads to introduction of Gi-Fi technology.it offers some advantages over Wi-Fi, a similar wireless technology.In that it offers faster information rate(Gbps),less power consumption and low cost for short range transmissions. Gi-Fi which is developed on a integrated wireless trnsceiver chip.In which a small
anteena used and both transmitter- receiver integrated on a single chip.which is fabricated using the complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS)process. Because of Gi-Fi transfer of large videos,files will be with in seconds.
WHY Gi-Fi ?
The reason for pushing into Gi-Fi technology is because of slow rate,high power consumption,low range of frequency operations of earlier technologies i.e.,Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. see the comparisons and features of those two technologies.
WHAT IS Gi-Fi? Gi-Fi or gigabit wireless is the worlds first transceiver integrated on a single chip
that operates at 60GHz on the CMOS.process. It will allow wireles transfer of audio and video data at up to 5 gigabits per second, ten times the current maximum wireless transfer rate, at one-tenth the cost. NICTA researchers have chosen to develop this technology in the 57-64GHz unlicensed frequency band as the millimetre-wave range of the spectrum makes possible high component on-chip integration as well as allowing for the integration of very small high gain arrays. The available 7GHz of spectrum results in very high data rates, up to 5 gigabits per second to users within an indoor environment, usually within a range of 10 metres.It satisfies the standards of IEEE 802.15.3C
ARCHITECTURE OF GI-FI:
The core components of a GI-FI system is the subscriber station which available to several access points.It supports standard of IEEE 802.15.3C supports millimeterwave wireless pan networks.The wirelesspan is communication among computer devices computer network used and for
(including
telephones
personal small
digital assistants) close to one person. An 802.15.3c based system often uses
antenna at the subscriber station. The antenna is mounted on the roof. It supports line of sight operation.
simultaneously across the wireless transmission paths within separate frequencies to avoid interference. It is also supported in the WPAN standard.TG3c is developing a millimeter-wave-based alternative physical layer (PHY) for the existing 802.15.3C. The
millimeter-wave WPAN will allow high coexistence (close physical spacing) with all other microwave systems in the 802.15 family of WPANs.
GIGABIT WIRELESS PAN NETWORKS
FEATURES OF Gi-Fi:
The Gi-Fi standard has been developed with many objectives in mind. These are summarized below:
indicates data transfer rate is in Giga bits per second.Speed of Gi-Fi is 5 gbps.which is 10 times the present data transfer.Because of this high speed data
transfer we can swap large video,audio,data files with in seconds.Which takes normally hours with our present technologies.Because of wider availability of 7 Ghz spectrum results in high data rates.
3. High Security:
As the IEEE 802.15.3C provides more security.it provides link level and service level security.where these features are optional. 4. Cost-effective: Gi-Fi is based on an open, international standard. Mass adoption of the standard, and the use of low-cost, mass-produced chipsets, will drive costs down dramatically, and the resultant integrated wireless transreceiver chip which transfers data at high speed,low power at low price $10 only.which is very less As compare to present systems.As go on development the price will be decreased.
5.Small Size:
Gigabit wireless: The Gi-Fi integrated wireless transceiver chip developed at the National ICT Research Centre, Australia.
The chip, just 5 mm per side, has a tiny 1 mm antenna and uses the 60 GHz millimetre-wave spectrum
6. Quick Deployment:
Compared with the deployment of wired solutions, WiMAX requires little or no external plant construction. For example Compared with the deployment of wired solutions, Gi-Fi requires little or no external plant construction. For example, excavation to support the trenching of cables is not required. Operators that have obtained licenses to use one of the licensed bands, or that plan to use one of the unlicensed bands, do not need to submit further applications to the Government.
Once the antenna and equipment are installed and powered, Gi-Fi is ready for service. In most cases, deployment of Gi-Fi can be completed in a matter of minutes, compared with hours for other solutions.
Other features:
It is also highly portable,high mobility. It deployes line of sight operation having only shorter coverage area,it has more flexible architecture.
APPLICATIONS:
There are many usage cenarios that can be addressed by Gi-Fi. The following are some mobility usage applications of Gi-Fi.
could play it on a home theatre system or store it on a home server for future viewing, again within a few seconds. high speed internet access, streaming content download
(video on demand, HDTV, home theater, etc.), real time streaming and wireless data bus for cable replacement It makes the WIRELESS HOME AND OFFICE OF THE FUTURE
.Office appliances:
As it transfers data at high speeds which made work very easy .its also provides high quality of information from internet .
Data transfer rate is same for transfer of information from a PC to a cell or a cell to a pc. It can enable wireless monitors, the efficient transfer of data from digital camcorders, wireless printing of digital pictures from a camera without the need for an intervening personal computer and the transfer of files among cell phone handsets and other handheld devices like personal digital audio and video players.
In future:
As the range is limited to shorter distances only we can expect the broad band with same speed and low power consumption. TECHNOLOGY CONSIDERATIONS: The Gi-Fi integrated transreciver chip is may be launched by starting of next year by NICTA,Australia will be first .Due to less cost of chip so many companies are forward to launch with lower cost. The potential of mw-WPAN for ultra fast data exchange has prompted companies like Intel, LG, Matsushita (Panasonic), NEC, Samsung, SiBEAM, Sony and Toshiba to form WirelessHD, an industry-led effort to define a specification for the next generation consumer electronics products. Specifically, WirelessHD has a stated goal of enabling wireless connectivity for streaming high- definition content between source devices and high-definition displays.
CONCLUSION : Within five years, we expect Gi-Fi to be the dominant technology for wireless networking. By that time it will be fully mobile, as well as providing low- cost, high broadband access, with very high speed large files swapped with in seconds which will develop wire less home and office of future.
Wi-Fi and the imminent wide usage of WiMAX is any potentially can bring wireless broadband to the entirely new way.
