| Abstract

"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 tofully mobile broadband applications involving moving vehicles, high-speed trains, and even airplanes. An increasing number of municipal governments around the world and virtually every major city in the United States are financing the deployment of 802.11 mesh networks, with the overall aim of providing ubiquitous Internet access and enhanced public services. This book is designed for 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 prominent practitioners and scientists, 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."--Jacket.
