NCRC Montreal ad-hoc group recommendations:

OTA IP Broadcasting (wi-hifi)
Suggested project working title "Distant Thunder"
a. One way 802.11 wireless service delivering broadcast quality audio for at least 3 km. Does not interfere with existing ( ie. home soho) wireless services.

b. Utilizing server burst, compression and client side caching, maintain an acceptable audio service without dropouts or signal degradation.

c. Permit one way service by channel selection of the desired audio signal. Client side would look for the signal, if it is found use it.

In future versions
. ... permit selection of multiple servers (OTA IP and normal ip service) . Multiplex with time division between ota ip and normal two way router. secure packet delivery may be compromised with this feature.

e. The client side software should hunt between accessible servers (ie home or public wifi service) and this ota ip service and auto select most appropriate signal.

f. choice of several audio sources by selection of channels.

Next future version
Suggested project working title "Echo"
g. Client side and server side includes compatibility with 802.11n mesh where deployed.
