Wireless ATM
By Atif S. Wasi, Ohio State University
Abstract
Wireless and ATM ( Asynchronous Transfer Mode) are in it's infancy. No standards have been defined by either the ATM Forum or ITU-T, yet. Research have been going on to develop a protocol that will run on wireless medium without much delay and errors. ATM-type wireless networks will play an important role in the broadband communications network of the future.
