My conversations these days have people talking past me a lot. They have a vision of the wireless Internet that is cloudy and does not know when Shannon’s Law applies. (For those unfamiliar, Shannon’s Law is a statement defining the theoretical maximum rate at which error-free digits can be transmitted over a bandwidth-limited channel in the presence of noise.)
The reality is that 3G, 4G, 5G and anything else we want to talk about is not going to share the bandwidth the same way that Ethernet does. Don’t get me wrong; I am impressed as to how far we have come in making wireless networks packet-friendly, but sooner or later wireless gets down to Shannon and session management.
If you want to talk about gateways as the multiplexing of IP that’s fine, but it is confined by the path that it has to the wireless network so at worst it could look like a femtocell, or at best have alternate paths and look like part of the core...Read More
