Gi-Fi

NEXT GENERATION WIRELESS TECHNOLOGY

INTRODUCTION To Gi-Fi:
For many years cables ruled the world, optical fibres played a dominant role for its faster transmission but installation of cable caused a greater difficulty and lead to wireless access. Foremost of this is bluetooth then Wi-Fi followed it. But the mans continuous quest for even better technology led to the introduction of new ,more up-to-date standard for data exchange rate i.e. Gi-Fi. Wi-Fi(ieee-802.11b) and WiMax(ieee-802.16e) have captured our attention. As there is no recent developments which transfer data at faster rate, as Video information transfer taking lot of time. This leads to introduction of Gi-Fi technology it offers some advantages over Wi-Fi, a similar wireless technology.

It was developed at the National Information And Communication Technology Research Center in MELBOURNE,AUSTRALIA.

Why Gi-Fi ?
The

reason for pushing into Gi-Fi technology is because of slow rate, high power consumption, low range of frequency operations of earlier technologies i.e.,Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.

Disadvantages of Bluetooth & Wi-Fi

The bit rates of Bluetooth is 800Kbps and Wi-Fi has 11Mbps

Both are having power consumptions 5mw and 10mw

The lower frequency of operation 2.4GHz.For transferring large amount of videos, audios, data files take hours of time. So, to have higher data transfer rate at lower power consumption we move onto Gi-Fi technology

What Is Gi-Fi ?
Gi-Fi or Gigabit Wireless is the world's first transceiver integrated on a single chip that operates at 60GHz on the CMOS process.

Gi-Fi will allow wireless transfer of audio and video data up to 5 gigabits per second. Gi-Fi is ten times the current maximum wireless transfer rate usually within a range of 10 meters.

Gigabit wireless: The Gi-Fi integrated wireless transceiver chip, developed at the National ICT Research Centre, Australia.

Architecture of Gi-Fi :
The core components of a GI-FI system is the subscriber station which available to several access points . It is based on standards of IEEE 802.15.3C The wireless span is computer network used for communication among computer devices (including telephones and personal digital assistants) close to one person

An 802.15.3c based system often uses small antenna at the subscriber station. The antenna is mounted on the roof. It supports line of sight operation.

FUNDAMENTAL TECHNOLOGIES IN 802.15.3C :

It transmits multiple signals simultaneously across the wireless transmission paths within separate frequencies to avoid interference. It uses ultra wide band. Which consists of : 1. High bit rate 2. High security

3. Faster data transmission

10

Working of Gi-Fi
Use of Time Division Duplex for both transmission and receiving. Conversion of data from IF range to RF60Ghz range The incoming RF signal is first down converted to an IF signal centered at 5 GHz and then to normal data ranges. Then use heterodyne principle for this process to avoid leakages. And then data is transferred.

11

FEATURES OF GI-FI :
High speed of data transfer Low power consumption High security Cost effective

Small size
Quick deployment

Highly portable,highmobility

APPLICATIONS OF GI-FI

1. House hold appliances : -it makes the wireless home of the future:

2. Office appliances :

3. Video information transfer:

4. Inter-vehicle communication system:

5. Broadcasting video signal transmission system in sports stadium:

16

TECHNOLOGY CONSIDERATIONS :
The Gi-Fi integrated transceiver chip is may be launched by starting of next year by NICTA,Australia will be first . Due to less cost of chip so many companies are forward to launch with lower cost. The potential of mw-WPAN for ultra fast data exchange has prompted companies like Intel, LG, Matsushita (Panasonic), NEC, Samsung, SiBEAM, Sony and Toshiba to form WirelessHD, an industry-led effort to define a specification for the next generation consumer electronics products.

17

Next To Gi-Fi
Specifically, WirelessHD has a stated goal of enabling wireless connectivity for streaming highdefinition content between source devices and high-definition displays.
18

CONCLUSION :
Within five years, we expect Gi-Fi to be the dominant technology for wireless networking. which will develop wire less home and office of future. If the success of Wi-Fi and the imminent wide usage of WiMAX is any indication, GiFi potentially can bring wireless broadband to the enterprise in an entirely new way.
