Nabeel Ahmed's wireless testbed project (June 2007)

The project consists of deploying many (40 or so) custom-built wireless APs, driving them with lots of traffic (A-band; already cleared with IST) and seeing what happens.

Here is a list of the planned AP locations:

Hi Trevor,
               I have decided on a tentative deployment in DC's second 
and third floors (I won't be deploying anything on the first floor). I 
have attached a listing of the rooms where I'd like to install APs, 
along with the number Ethernet jacks I'd like in each room. For most all 
of them, I essentially require one jack, but I've requested 2 jacks in 
our lab, in case I need to do some small scale experiments. Please have 
a look and let me know if jacks are available in the selected rooms. I 
have also attempted to select rooms where there are folks that I know, 
so that I can get into those rooms 'more easily. So, in this sense, I 
think the deployment I have is quite optimal :)

We can talk in more detail about this tommorow.
