Implementing Voice Over Wireless Networks: Realities and Challenges
Overview Voice over Wireless Fidelity (VoWi-Fi) presents wireless network designers with a difficult challenge because introducing high bandwidth wireless applications such as VoWi-Fi can cause wireless networks to suffer a loss of Quality of Service (QoS), and in many cases, fail. This is important today because, according to a January 2006 report by Infonetics Research, "WiFi phone units grew 112 percent between 2004 and 2005 and will grow 158 percent in 2006." The cold reality is that ad-hoc design methods and site surveys are insufficient for wireless networks supporting high volume applications. Making matters worse, Radio Frequency (RF) interference, RF noise, and the physical environment dramatically affect wireless coverage and capacity. These challenges become exponentially more difficult to solve as the wireless network grows in size and complexity.
