Critical analysis of high speed wireless standards for transferring telementoring information

摘要

Summary form only given. The main focus of this paper is to investigate the requirements for developing a feasible solution for the transmission of Telesurgical (mainly Telementoring) audio and video information over high speed wireless links. This requires an improvement in the quality of service of the wireless link between two sites in terms of throughput, delay, delay variations, stability and security. As the high level features of current broadband wireless technologies can be employed to provide the high-speed link between the two sites, this paper also critically analyses and evaluates the functionality issues of current and upcoming wireless standards such as Spectrum Management, Media Access Technologies, and Authentication Access and Control. It also investigates their suitability for the transmission of Telesurgical information. It then classifies the wireless technologies into different categories based on their ability to transfer information over long and short distances. The analysis carried out in this paper would lay out the guidelines for selecting an appropriate wireless standard for transferring Telesurgical information.
