The Wireless City
Tropos Systems Architecture - A smarter way to build outdoor wireless mesh networks for campus systems, large zones and wireless cities....
A growing number of users are adopting Wi-Fi at home, and a similar trend is taking place at work. In 2006, only 6% of us used a wireless router at home, it is now predicted that by the end of 2010, this figure could be as high as 25%. Along side this, the adoption of large scale Wi-Fi networks by local authorities can result in both efficiency improvements and financial savings. There are many uses for a network of this kind, including:
- Utilities - Networked utility meters enable better resource management, monitoring and conservation while lowering operational costs
- Intelligent Transport Systems - Intelligent traffic solutions collect information at signals all around the city, correlate the real-time data and can automatically regulate traffic policies across a city
- Mobile Workforce - Extending office IT resources to field workers is dramatically improving efficiencies, lowering costs, and raising citizen satisfaction
- Public Safety - Providing mobile public safety workers with timely access to the information they need in the field is reducing response time for emergencies and saving lives
- Video Surveillance - For locations where its too expensive to run a cable, video cameras can be connected wirelessly delivering a cost-effective alternative while increasing community safety and extending the visual reach of police, fire, and ambulance
- Industrial - Often operating in hostile conditions, industrial site networks are used for a range of activities that improve business operational efficiencies, reduce operating cost, and increase worker and site safety
- Public Access - Citywide, campus-wide, and hot zone wireless broadband networks increase quality of life, educational opportunities, and economic development
- Central Government - Permanent or tactical network deployments deliver reliable, secure communications for a wide range of applications including security, monitoring of remote locations, and applications on military bases
