Email: [email protected]

Mail: Dept. of Electrical EngineeringSouthern Methodist UniversityPO Box 750338Dallas, TX 75275-0338

• Do NOT email/call to confirm receipt of assignments and do not submit assignments twice (eg: by fax AND mail)– That adds a tremendous amount of unnecessary work for both Pat and

myself….see next slide….

Important Comments for Distance Students...

Course Overview


• Golden Rule for Submission of Material:

– I know there are delays and technical difficulties with live transmission and videotapes.

– Please Try your best to meet the deadlines to avoid penalty.

– Send the assignments as explained before.

– If I receive it incomplete or in error, I will contact you.

• I do attempt to repeat all questions and comments, for the benefit of distance students.

Issues & trends• Wireless Data traffic usage increased 450%

from 1Q09 till 2Q10 • 54% of traffic generated indoors, operators

lose revenue due to lack of coverage• smart phones has WiFi capabilities and most

of its traffic is carried over WiFi connection.– Expand in the WiFi as offload mechanism or to

provide coverage

• Spectrum exhaust: some operators are running out of spectrum in 2-3 years ��Need for

– New spectrum ( auctions)– FCC expect 90Mhz spectrum deficit by 2013

– Densify the network (HetNEt)

• Market demand for HetNet is accelerating
