The Wireless Philadelphia Network (WPN) is a metropolitan?area network (MAN) consisting of thousands of Tropos 5210 wireless mesh routers distributed across the entire city of Philadelphia and connected by a fiber backbone. This project is employing this network as a testbed to investigate three diverse security challenges facing any large-scale wireless network servicing a heterogeneous population. The first challenge is in efficient network anomaly detection algorithms, and the proposed solution is to investigate the efficacy of both compressive sampling and distributed source coding based approaches in reducing the amount of data that must be transmitted to the anomaly detector. The second challenge is physical layer security in wireless networks, and the proposed solution is to use physical layer based encryption algorithms and user authentication. The third challenge is anomaly detection at the application layer, in particular for web servers, and the proposed solution is to develop software sensors on the hardware, operating system, virtual machine, and application server, and develop rules for identifying possible anomalies using these metrics. Besides the intellectual merit of these challenges, the project has several broader impacts. First, low-income residents gain Internet access through integration with the Freedom Rings Partnership. Second, students participate in community service based engineering design projects. Finally, curricular enhancements and the recruitment of women and minority graduate students improve the educational and diversity missions at our university.

无线费城网络（WPN）是一个大都市网络（MAN），由数千个Tropos 5210无线网状路由器组成，分布在整个费城城市，并由纤维骨架连接。 该项目正在采用该网络作为测试台，以调查任何大规模无线网络面临的三种不同的安全挑战，可服务于异质人群。 第一个挑战是在有效的网络异常检测算法中，建议的解决方案是研究压缩采样和基于分布式源编码方法在减少必须传输到异常检测器的数据量方面的功效。 第二个挑战是无线网络中的物理层安全性，建议的解决方案是使用基于物理层的加密算法和用户身份验证。 第三个挑战是应用程序层的异常检测，特别是对于Web服务器，而建议的解决方案是在硬件，操作系统，虚拟机和应用程序服务器上开发软件传感器，并制定用于使用这些指标识别可能异常的规则。除了这些挑战的智力优点外，该项目还具有更广泛的影响。 首先，低收入居民通过与Freedom Rings合作伙伴关系集成而获得互联网访问。 其次，学生参加基于社区服务的工程设计项目。 最后，课程改进以及妇女和少数族裔研究生的招聘改善了我们大学的教育和多样性任务。
