Wireless LANs have become mainstream over the last few years. What
started out as cable replacement for static desktops in indoor networks
has been extended to fully mobile broadband applications involving
moving vehicles, high-speed trains, and even airplanes. This book is
designed to appeal to a broad audience with different levels of
technical background and can be used in a variety of ways: as a first
course on wireless LANs, as a graduate-level textbook, or simply as a
professional reference guide. It describes the key practical
considerations when deploying wireless LANs and equips the reader with a
solid understanding of the emerging technologies. The book comprises 38
high-quality contributions from industry and academia and covers a broad
range of important topics related to 802.11 networks, including quality
of service, security, high throughput systems, mesh networking,
802.11/cellular interworking, coexistence, cognitive radio resource
management, range and capacity evaluation, hardware and antenna design,
hotspots, new applications, ultra-wideband, and public wireless
broadband.
