Abstract :
In this paper, we present a system overview of the Cambridge Wireless Broadband Trial which is being deployed in the Cambridge area in the UK. The trial network is intended to serve as a testbed for research into new paradigms for wireless communications, and will provide an infrastructure for research on home networks. After a brief discussion of the network provisioning methods required to make the network operational, we present some preliminary measurement results. We then identify potential performance issues and propose some possible solutions as future work
