Hi, ftth - Thanks for the reference; subject to the usual caveats, learned long ago from you, I will re-read the paper tonight.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
On an unrelated subject, as some of you may know, I began my study of telecommunications through the medium of wireless. I ran into the paper below in a list of referenced documents from the last meeting of the OFDM Forum in Calgary.

The California PATH document was of particular interest, because of its novel approach to addressing mobile users. A token-ring topology is discussed, together with an addressing scheme comprised of an IP address, and a network address consisting of its GPS position.

I am attempting to understand some of the issues involved in integrating mobile apps into future networks. At first blush, this mechanism seems to offer a way to significantly decrease lookup tables, and increase QOS in mobile apps in general, as opposed to solely automotive apps considered by PATH.

Comments on this document appreciated. BTW, the documents are 'locked' and cannot be copied or printed, more's the pity.
