SSCH uses VirtualWiFi to virtualize a wireless card with as many instances as the number of orthogonal channels. The second application of VirtualWiFi that increases the capacity of wireless ad hoc networks using orthogonal channels is called Slotted Seeded Channel Hopping (SSCH). A more detailed description of Client Conduit can be found in the paper titled: “ Architecture and Techniques for Diagnosing Faults in IEEE 802.11 Infrastructure Networks“. VirtualWiFi enables this thin pipe without requiring the connected client to explicitly disconnect from the infrastructure network. These clients dynamically connect to disconnected clients over an ad hoc network, and send messages from them to the back end servers. The thin pipe is achieved by running VirtualWiFi on the connected clients. Client Conduit is a tool that provides a thin pipe of communication for disconnected clients to exchange diagnosis information with the back end servers. The first application is called Client Conduit, which is a very useful tool for fault diagnosis and recovery in Wireless LANs. We have explored several other applications of VirtualWiFi.
