Module Description:
In this module, we cover wireless, concentrating mostly on mobile communications. We'll cover the principles of operation, jargon and buzzwords in the mobility business, the idea behind cellular radio systems, and explain the different spectrum-sharing technologies, including 1G analog FDMA, 2G TDMA/GSM vs. CDMA, 3G 1X vs. UMTS CDMA and 4G OFDMA. We'll conclude with a lesson on 802.11 wireless LANs (Wi-Fi) and a lesson on satellite communications.

Lesson description:
In this lesson, we'll cover 3G mobile cellular radio technologies:
- How the quest for an international standard to resolve the I-95 CDMA vs. GSM TDMA incompatibility led to a Frankenstein standard called IMT-2000
- How IMT-2000 included five different incompatible variations for implementing 3G
- How two of them were of most interest: IMT-MC, also known as 1X, and IMT-DS, also known as UMTS, both employing CDMA technology
- The tragic-comic attempts to deploy UMTS without reliance on Qualcomm or on the United States government's GPS
- The data-optimized variations of the two, 1XEV-DO and HSPA respectively.
- The capitulation of the 1X camp to the UMTS camp's plan for 4G, and how that led to the widespread deployment of HSPA.
