Seattle Bans Wi-Fi for Public Safety
Reasons

Seattle Bans Wi-Fi for Public Safety
Reasons 04/01/2005 11:54 AM

A report in TidBITS dated April 1 explains Seattle's recent coffeehouse ban: As we all know, Wi-Fi commonly operates in the 2.4 GHz band, the same band used by microwave ovens to heat food through the bipolar effect in which rapid switching causes friction in water molecules. (Not resonance as is often mistakenly stated.)

This can apparently lead to dangerous results not previously seen as the density of Wi-Fi usage increases. At a local coffeeshop, an ill-advised gateway placement and too many Wi-Fi users resulted in the espresso machine's boiler exploding from too much pressure. Several were injured, only one seriously; all were bloggers.

Seattle has formed the WTF (Wi-Fi Testing Foundation) to better understand this incident, but has proactively banned Wi-Fi until the results come in.

Kuwaiti Public Ad-Hoc P2P Systems Over
Bluetooth

Kuwaiti Public Ad-Hoc P2P Systems Over
Bluetooth 09/13/2004 07:22 AM

Our buddy Mark from Kuwait just sent us this little bit, which I thought was interesting.

hey joel, there is a new trend in kuwait. since the majority of people have bluetooth phones, if u sit at a food court or at a starbucks in a mall people will start sending you files. its like P2P, totally anonymous and everyone is always giving.

it started off by people sending porn to each other but now it has evolved. people are actually make small movies, mostly funny and sending them to each other.

While my first thought is how someone else could own your phone with a strategic packet, it is interesting to think about a future where our mobiles have 2-3GB of storage and a couple of different radios, and if we get bored waiting for a bus or something we can just whip them out and join a local P2P network to see what people have shared. Now we just need a cross-platform P2P system.

High Growth Expected for Safety PLCs &

High Growth Expected for Safety PLCs &
Safety Bus/Networks 04/14/2005 04:00 AM
There are concerns about the reliability and safety in the use of safety buses/networks for machine automatic safeguarding, particularly when safety and non-safety data is handled by the same bus/network. Nevertheless usage is expected to grow significantly over the forecast period, as the use of safety PLCs grows and reliability of operations with safety buses/networks becomes proven. Usage is particularly attractive when machines and controls become more complex (i.e., for example, requiring many emergency stops and/or safety gate switches with multiple actuators).

NPR on Radio Interference

NPR on Radio Interference 05/26/2004 12:09 PM
NPR reports on interference among legitimate radio uses: Morning Edition reports on conflicts between legitimate uses, such as a baby monitor poorly made that was appearing on military and AM/FM radio (they pulled the monitor off the market). It also explains how broadband-over-powerlines (BPL) might have an impact on licensed amateur radio. The excellent report covers how the FCC is improving its testing methods to observe interference....

Interference to Pose Problems 10/28/2003 11:09 PM
An analyst from the Aberdeen Group suggests that interference will become a major problem next year: As more hot spots pop up, they are more likely to interfere with each other, degrading the user experience. He says that the only solution will be for governments to open up more spectrum and thus more channels for Wi-Fi so networks have less chance of interfering with each other....

Electrical (Standards) Interference

Electrical (Standards) Interference 04/02/2005 03:25 PM

HomePlu g AV is near--but so are three other standards: Frustrating, isn't it, that just when you hear the news that the electrical networking standard HomePlug is about to be revised from version 1.0 to AV (11 Mbps to 200 Mbps!) that three other standards could split the marketplace and thus doom it in the same way that the excellent HomeRF standard sunk beneath the waters by failing to reach the market fast enough with speedy bandwidth.

PC World reports that HomePlug AV will be ratified in June and be built into settop boxes and other devices. With a raw 200 Mbps design, it should deliver at least 100 Mbps of actual net throughput, enough to stream multiple video signals across your home's wiring. It's also designed to work with Broadband over Powerline (BPL) equipment, although I'm finding that increasingly unlikely to be deployed in the U.S. based on power utility statements. (Anti-municipal telecom/broadband bills would make it impossible for private utilities to deploy BPL, too.)

The United Powerline Association unfortunately has a competing spec that won't interoperate. And then HomePlug has a low-power control protocol they're working on as does Z-Wave.

The article unfortunately quotes the New Millennium Research Council, a group that I have written about extensively here because of their parent company, Issue Dynamics, which is a PR firm that represents incumbent telco and cable operators. The NRMC is oddly 100-percent behind BPL, and if you look at Issue Dynamics's client list, you find that Edison Electric Institute and Virginia Power are represented in their client list; Pacific Gas & Electric was a former client.

So keep your scorecard straight: utilities offering broadband is a bad idea when they are owned by municipalities, but an entirely good idea when private companies own the utilities. And allowing municipal utilities to allow private companies to offer broadband over their electrical lines would be bad, too.
