Title:
Fujisawa WiMAX: a wide area wireless network that you can use around SFC
Abstract:
Keio University, with helps from industries, established a wide area wireless communications network, using WiMAX technology, in Shonan-dai area in the middle of 2009. The network features high speed terminal mobility, QoS differenciation, flexible authentication and authorization and various international interface points in wireless and wired network components. This is an initiative to develop a new communications infrastructure, which particularly targets and is suitable to regional communications like in towns and cities yet has sufficient connectivity to Internet.
Now, most of the bus route from Shonandai-station to SFC is in the coverage of the network. Open broadband wireless platform laboratory in SFC subscribes a chunk of communication capacity of Fujisawa WiMAX in FY 2009 to expand the usage of the network and subsequently enhance regional communications. We, SFC researchers, can use the network for social as well as technology researches. We already started researches, using Fujisawa WiMAX, in mobile digital signage system, agricultual sensing, authentication relay and radio wave propagation study. Joint research with industries are, of course, welcome.
In this presentation, technical fundamentals, the development history, and on-going researches using of Fujisawa WiMAX are introduced.
