Series in Wireless Technology

Developments

• Mobile wireless devices support:

– Wide range of applications spanning voice and data communication

– Remote monitoring, and position finding

• Examples of current mobile wireless:

– Cell phones, Pagers

– Personal digital assistants (PDAs)

– Global positioning systems (GPS)

– Portable - even wearable - computers

Intervention of Nanotechnology

• Trend towards Miniaturization

• Trend towards Digitization

• Trend to cell-level biological control

• Trend to Pervasive Computing

What is Nanotechnology?

• Nanotechnology is a branch of science

and engineering devoted to the design and production of extremely small electronic

devices and circuits built from individual

atoms and molecules.

• Nanotechnology comprises any

technological developments on the

nanometer scale, usually 0.1-100nm

Ethical Issues in Nanotechnology

• Advantages

– Reduced energy use

– Better medical treatment

– Lower costs for computing

• Disadvantages

– Environmental risks

– Privacy risks

– Social and political risks

• Other Issues

– When and how to regulate or not regulate the

technological development?

– How to address inevitable ethical challenges?

Effects of Nanotechnology over Wireless Communication (1)

• The various effects of Nanotechnology

over the Wireless Communication devices are classified by:

– Wireless Technologies Advancements

– Demand for Wireless Communication

– Necessity for low-cost high-efficient system

– Wireless Connectivity

– Nanotechnology effect on Multimedia Market

Molecular Nanotechnology

• Molecular nanotechnology ("MNT") is an

anticipated manufacturing technology that would allow precise control and positional assembly of molecule-sized building blocks through the use

of Nano-scale manipulator arms

• Nanotechnology was first introduced in 1959, in

a talk by the Nobel Prize-winning physicist

Richard Feynman, entitled "There's Plenty of

Room at the Bottom"

Future Predictions of

Nanotechnology

• Earrings that become your cell phone by

allowing listening amplification and

location-focused microphones to interface with

voice-activated technology

• Chips in your jacket, shirt, blouse, or pants that can be downloaded with your ID, allowing fast

access to secure items

• Holographic lenses in eyeglasses that work like bifocals While one hemisphere of the lens is

unaffected, the other is connected to networks of information, providing the ultimate in virtual

reality for users
