Diversity Techniques for OFDM Based WLAN Systems

Overview This paper presents different spatial diversity techniques that can be employed in an OFDM based WLAN system to improve the system performance. This paper presents some results obtained by simulation when a HIPERLAN/2 transceiver is employed. HIPERLAN/2 (HL/2) is a Wireless LAN (WLAN) standard defined by the ETSI BRAN. This standard will operate in the unlicensed 5 GHz band and will provide data rates up to 54 Mbps in the physical layer in order to support broadband multimedia communications between portable devices and different core networks.

ID tech tightens up compliance

Companies should also develop policies around use of portable storage devices such as CDs and USB memory sticks and consider using technologies to block their use so that they cannot be used to leak data out of an organisation.

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?
