By Jason Brewer and Marion Lineberry Programming languages such as Java, along with programmable DSPs, will play a large role in the integration of multimedia applications in the wireless environment. A roadmap is provided in the form of a data model, which simplifies application programming for the Java-DSP platform. Thayumanavan Sridhar A discussion of Layer 3 switching in the context of fast IP is provided, with a focus on forwarding decisions, filtering and policy decisions, IP options, error handling and fragmentation, lookups, and monitoring. Designing a Video Capture System with DSPs By Mike Fawcett By choosing a DSP-based architecture, much of the functionality of the device shifts from the hardware to the software design.
Software performs the compression and datacom processes, along with control functions.
The remainder of the design then involves adding hardware to interface the camera and modem to the processor. A tutorial on MMDS and the spectrum used for wireless cable is presented.
