Abstract
We developed an information delivery system, namely WIDE (Wireless Information Delivery Environment), in client-server architecture using 802.11b infrastructure. WIDE aims to deliver popular information services to registered mobile clients in WLAN hot spots. We present the proposed system architecture, related delivery mechanism and communication protocols. We also give a brief overview of mechanisms required for secure and reliable communication in WIDE system. Performance evaluation results of the proposed system using the implemented prototype are also included in this paper.
