Abstract
Today it seems like everyone is talking about something called "broadband", its importance, and how it's going to affect and enhance your computing experience. However, it is rarely defined in a simple and straightforward manner. This paper will attempt to provide an explanation in a way that is pertinent to you as an end user-- it will define what is meant by "broadband" and "wireless area network technology", describe what is involved, and differentiate between the most popular broadband technologies.
From the paper:
"Broadband is usually used to refer to a type of Internet connection. Simply speaking, a broadband connection is a connection that allows for extremely high speeds and supports data, voice, and sometimes even video information. It is considered broad because multiple kinds of information can travel across the wire, or band. High speed means that in addition to surfing the web without delays, you will also be able to enjoy multimedia-rich applications such as streaming audio and videoconferencing. Broadband connections are typically always on, so you don't have to spend extra time dialing in to your service provider; as soon as the computer attached to the service is turned on, you can start browsing."

"Wireless services are an excellent example of how just how far technology has come. Wireless networking holds the key to a new era of telecommunications, yet wireless services have been used for well over a century and are still synonymous with "radio" (ATS, 2003). The first sign of wireless technology was seen in the 19th century when Guglielmo Marconi, who is known as "the father of radio?, entered the
world of wireless technology."

From the Paper
"At present there are a range of protocols in use for wireless technology. Perhaps the most common is 802.11b. It is moderately cheap in using equipment 802.11b. The free 2.4 Ghz is the frequency range in which 802.11b wireless communication standard works. But there are many systems like cordless phones and baby monitors which obstruct the wireless traffic. For 802.11b communications, the maximum speed is 11 mbps. The new 802.11g standard is an improved version of 802.11b. Though it uses the same busy 2.4 Ghz shared by other common household wireless devices, 802.11g is competent of transmission speeds up to 54 mbps. The equipment intended for 802.11g communicates with 802.11b equipment, but combination of two standards is not suggested. (Quick Tip: Wireless Networking Protocols)"

The newest obstacle is congestion on the telecom networks. This proposal discusses various new technologies that can solve this such as XDSL, Optical, ATM, Satellite and Cable. The writer aims to find an efficient and cost effective solution to this problem for the enterprise.
From the Paper
"As the Internet has grown, congestion over the telephone networks has increased causing data overload on circuits. Tele.Com?s (1996) editors proclaimed in 1996 ??after a century of predictability, the telephone network as we know it is fading into oblivion?? . Solutions to this problem are varied but all involve totally digital network lines. Broadband solutions ??promise speed, but the reality is often limited by internet speeds, backbone connections, switch capacity?? (DSL Prime.Com, August 2000) which is why there are so many obstacles for new technologies to overcome no matter how fast they are. This paper will discuss the various new technologies and which one(s) will be the best for implementation while lowering costs and increasing efficiency.

"The current frontier of high speed internet technology and digital communications is broadband. Although it has been available for several years now to both homes and businesses, broadband has not spread as rapidly as some proponents of the technology had hoped or expected, leading to the failure of some companies involved in this business. What is broadband, and what is its future? These are questions that are taking on increasing importance as broadband usage is finally increasing around the world. Of equal importance is which broadband technology will survive and how telecommunications regulations in this country will impact the digital world."

Abstract
The history of wireless networking began over fifty years ago, prior to World War II, when it was discovered that radio signals could be used for data transmission by the military. The United States Army developed a radio data transmission technology, which was heavily encrypted. This technology was used throughout the campaign with the U.S. and its allies. The military?s use of wireless networking was so impressive that a group of researchers in 1971 at the University of Hawaii moved to develop the first packet-based radio communications network. This paper explains that the result, which was called ALOHNET, was the first wireless local area network (WLAN). The paper explores wireless networking and the advantages that it provides to its users, while serving as a facilitator that advances technology. The paper also includes diagrams.

"Like cell phones, wireless-equipped laptops within range of a given access point have the ability to communicate with the network. Many systems allow roaming between access points. If a user moves out of range, he will lose the connection. In addition, a single access point can communicate with multiple wireless-equipped laptops, meaning that users share the available bandwidth with other users. If many users are communicating with a single access point, the network connection is likely to slow down."

From the Paper
"Even though the U.S. military is said to have started the use of wireless internet, it was Hedy Lamarr, a world-class beauty and a 1940s movie actress who was responsible for the origins of wireless Internet. Even though she did not have any technical training, Hedy Lamarr, being a gorgeous lady, was compelled by her husband to attend all his technical meetings held with the German military, which discussed a way to guide torpedoes by radio which could not be jammed. She wanted to join the National Inventors Council, which was set up to encourage Americans to contribute inventions for the coming war activity. It was during this time that the Council wanted actors and actresses to help sell War Bonds and she became a Hollywood actress to kiss any man who bought $50,000 in War Bonds. One day while she was playing four-hand piano with a musical hacker named George Antheil, she stopped and said "That's the answer to the torpedo problem: we are together, but apart. We are synchronized, but independent." She used the words 'frequency hopping' and they led to a patent U.S. Patent #2,292,387, called 'Secret Communications' wherein frequency hopping was done mechanically, by means of a piano roll tape having 88 holes to have control over both the radio on the sub and in the torpedo."

"Wireless communication was developed while wired communication was being expanded. Guilermo Marconi was one of the first to experiment with other ways to communicate besides a wired system. According to the book Marconi used Einstein?s theory of relativity to create a system of wireless telegraphy. The book goes on to say that the early development of wireless communications was the stepping stone for today?s wireless communications networks. (Regli) In the past wireless networks were unreliable and expensive. The old system was often criticized for not being fast enough and not providing users with the benefits associated with the traditional wired systems. However, today there have been many technological advances that have allowed these networks to become more efficient."

With numerous and potential applications of the Wireless Internet, the Wireless Internet industry has some key players in the business world. It is expected that this industry would not only grow exponentially in future, it is also growing rapidly now.
Executive Summary
Information increases productivity. The Internet was born. Globalization was an immediate running course. The wireless industry had to evolve to keep up with the worldwide growth in revenues and production. The wireless world may seem complicated; but in it, as in the familiar wired world, all that the Wireless Internet needs is three basic things to go online: a modem or some other hardware device, a service provider that would connect that hardware to the Internet, and content to look at once connected (Arar). The Wireless Internet has created excitement from Yahoo to Microsoft, and from Japan to US. It is a worldwide phenomenon holding great importance. This project will give an outline for the final one that would try to answer the question: is the Wireless Internet industry growing as rapidly as it appears, and as well as it has been predicted? The expected answer is a simple 'Yes.' "
