    Wireless and Mobile Computing

    IMPORTANT TOPICS DEC-2024


    7TH SEM EXAM

    Unit 1: Review of Traditional Networks

    1. IP Addressing and Subnetting

    - IP Datagram Format: Consists of header (source and destination addresses) and data.

    - Subnetting: Dividing a network into smaller sub-networks.

    - Supernetting: Combining multiple networks into a single network.

    - CIDR (Classless Inter-Domain Routing): Allows efficient allocation of IP addresses.

    2. NAT (Network Address Translation)

    - SNAT (Source NAT): Changes the source IP in packets leaving the network.

    - DNAT (Destination NAT): Changes the destination IP in packets entering the network.

    - NAT and Firewalls: NAT enhances security by hiding internal network structure.

    3. VLANs (Virtual Local Area Networks)

    - Types: Port-based, MAC-based, Protocol-based VLANs.

    - Comparison: VLANs segregate traffic logically without physical boundaries.

    4. IPv6

    - Address Structure: 128-bit addressing scheme.

    - Address Space: Supports trillions of unique addresses.

    - Header: Simplified header structure for faster processing.

    Unit 2: Traditional Routing and Transport

    1. Routing Protocols

    - BGP (Border Gateway Protocol): Handles routing between autonomous systems.

    - Types of messages: OPEN, UPDATE, KEEPALIVE, NOTIFICATION.

    - RIP (Routing Information Protocol): Distance-vector protocol using hop count.

    - OSPF (Open Shortest Path First): Link-state protocol using cost as a metric.

    2. TCP (Transmission Control Protocol)

    - Three-Way Handshake: Connection establishment process (SYN, SYN-ACK, ACK).

    - Flow Control: Adjusts data flow to avoid congestion.

    - Timeout and Retransmission Algorithms: Ensures reliable data delivery.

    - Examples: Tahoe, Reno, Sack (improvements in loss recovery).

    3. UDP (User Datagram Protocol)

    - Message Encapsulation: Lightweight, connectionless protocol.

    - Pseudo Header: Helps in checksum computation.

    Unit 3: Wireless LAN and Mobile IP

    1. Wireless LAN (WLAN)

    - Transmission Medium: Radio waves or infrared.

    - MAC Problems: Hidden terminal, exposed terminal issues.

    - IEEE 802.11:

    - System Architecture: Includes APs, clients, and a distribution system.

    - Protocol Architecture: Divided into physical and MAC layers.

    - Power Management: Devices enter sleep mode to save energy.

    - Security: Uses WEP, WPA, WPA2.

    2. Mobile IP

    - Goals: Allow devices to move without changing IP.

    - Agent Advertisement and Discovery: Enables mobile devices to find agents.

    - Tunneling Techniques: Encapsulation for delivering packets to mobile devices.

    3. Ad Hoc Network Routing

    - Ad Hoc vs. Traditional IP Routing: Ad hoc is dynamic and decentralized.

    - Routing Protocols: Examples include OADV, DSDV, DSR, ZRP.

    Unit 4: Mobile Transport Layer and Cellular Networks

    1. Mobile Transport Protocols

    - I-TCP (Indirect TCP): Splits the connection between wired and wireless parts.

    - S-TCP (Split TCP): Optimized for wireless environments.

    - M-TCP (Mobile TCP): Maintains end-to-end semantics with low energy consumption.

    2. Cellular Networks

    - GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications):

    - Services: Voice, SMS, data.

    - System Architecture: BTS, BSC, MSC components.

    - Handover: Switching calls between cells.

    - Roaming: Connecting to foreign networks.

    Unit 5: Mobile Device Operating Systems and M-Commerce

    1. Mobile Operating Systems

    - Constraints: Limited resources, battery, and processing power.

    - Examples: iOS, Android.

    2. M-Commerce

    - Structure: Includes mobile devices, apps, payment gateways.

    - Advantages: Convenience, accessibility.

    - Disadvantages: Security, privacy issues.

    - Mobile Payment Systems: Digital wallets, QR codes.

    - Security Issues: Encryption, authentication, fraud detection.

    Suggested Strategy:

    • Prioritize Unit 3 (Wireless LAN, Mobile IP) and Unit 4 (Mobile Transport, GSM) as they are core
    to wireless and mobile computing.
    • Spend some time on basic concepts from Unit 1 (IP addressing, NAT) and Unit 2 (TCP/UDP).
    • Quickly review Unit 5, focusing on Mobile OS and M-Commerce security.

    Focus on these key topics to efficiently prepare for your Wireless and Mobile Computing exam.

    Good luck!
