| Abstract | The world of wireless communication has grown very fast over the past few years. Wi-Fi access points have now become very common feature in homes, campuses and public places. In these applications, high-speed, low cost and high security is desirable. Radio frequency (RF) transmission is used in most of the wireless applications. However, the RF spectrum is so congested that it is very difficult to accommodate new high-bit-rate applications. On the other hand, IR technology is less costly, free of government regulation, immune to radio interference, and secure. Infrared radiation (IR) based optical wireless (OW) system with low implementation complexity and no spectrum license requirements can provide a possible solution. This paper proposes architecture of a broadband wireless campus area network (WCAN) using OW links operating at 1550 nm wavelength, which provides eye-safe excellent power budget and improved link performance against ambient light as well as unfavorable weather conditions. The proposed WCAN allows computer users in different buildings e.g. departments, library and studentspsila residences to share multimedia information and resources with fiber-like bandwidth capacity at lower cost. The proposed WCAN is an all-optical network consisting of both indoor as well as outdoor optical links. The indoor optical links provide wireless connectivity to the stationary and mobile wireless data terminals within a room. At the same time, outdoor optical links are the cost effective, high-bandwidth, wireless alternative for inter connecting the various campus entities. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
