Characterising Wireless LAN Transmission Characteristics
Overview Wireless signals are omni directional in nature, and thus the environment in which wireless signals propagate may ultimately hinder network transmissions, resulting in an increase of lost and erroneous packets. An understanding of what produces these irregularities is essential due to their effect on network throughput, protocol design and in determining the location of access points. This paper is concerned with the analysis of signal strength and loss pattern of IEEE 802.11g wireless LANs at the packet level. The efforts of which involves analysing a large quantity of data, collected at varied locations and times, using a consistent and reliable framework, so as to establish a confidence in the distribution of observable behaviour.
