*Correspondence to: Gilbert Held, 4-Degree Consulting, 4736 Oxford Road, Macon, GA 31210, USA. E-mail: [email protected] Over the past few years the use of wireless LANs has evolved from a curiosity to a necessity. When we travel to many Starbucks or McDonalds, visit an airport or check into a hotel or motel the chances are high that we are able to access the Internet via a wireless LAN connec...
متن کاملImplementation of campus-wide wireless network services using ATM, virtual LANs, and wireless basestations
A campus-wide wireless LAN has been implemented that combines the scalability of virtual LANs and the flexibility of switched Ethernet with the mobility of wireless LAN access. A suite of general-purpose software tools has been developed and deployed to monitor the status of the network, measure the bandwidth utilization, control access to the network, and authenticate users.
متن کاملWIRELESS LANs: THE DECT APPROACH
This paper deals with the design and implementation of a wireless Local Area Network (LAN), called DECT LAN, providing access to a backbone wired Ethernet network. Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) standard provides only the radio interface between mobile devices and Ethernet via a base station. The DECT protocol is implemented as a combination of hardware and software compone...
متن کاملComparative Throughput of WiFi & Ethernet LANs using OPNET MODELER
The comparison between the performance of both wired and wireless networks is based on various performance parameters. The performance of the wired Ethernet is very sensitive to the number of users and the offered load. When the number of users/offered load is high then the collisions increase resulting in larger wastage of the medium and lowering overall throughput. The aim of this research is...
