Capacity Coverage & Deployment Considerations for IEEE 802.11g

Tags:
mobile - wireless communications

Overview 802.11g is an exciting new technology that offers additional performance, while providing investment protection for 802.11b clients through backward compatibility. By using previous technologies and economies of scale, 802.11g devices are available at little or no additional cost relative to 802.11b. As such, there are many reasons to begin migrating from 802.11b to 802.11g. 802.11g is not, however, a panacea for WLAN capacity issues. When operating in mixed-mode environments, the throughput and capacity improvements are very modest. Even with advances like CTS to Self and when operating in 802.11g-only mode, capacity will be limited by the small number of available 2.4 GHz channels.

Peter Cochrane's Uncommon Sense: DIY v DIFM networks

Economies are being impacted by the lack of bandwidth and an inability to connect. Today Manhattan has over 12,000 self installed WLAN/Wi-Fi systems that could potentially offer contiguous service across complete city blocks.

Peter Cochrane's Uncommon Sense: A Christmas wish list

I know it is a tall order but if you could just exert some influence (or grab them by the throat/pension fund, which is likely to be more effective) to get the network companies to supply bandwidth in much larger quantities and at a reasonable...

Peter Cochrane's Blog: The search for spectrum

It could be hard to work out the details but I don't see why unused broadcast radio and TV channels cannot be used for WLAN applications. Also, their signal processing aids consistent performance by adjusting the modulation mode.

Brampton Factor: Bringing tech to the developing world

During the critical development period for the 'developed' economies, rules were highly discriminatory. That question leads to the more general issue of whether these moves liberate developing economies or lock them more firmly into dependence.

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?

Telecom 2.0: Mind over matter

ntl:Telewest Business believes that the role of the telco is evolving. Gone are the days when it was enough to simply focus on circuits and minutes, customers now need a far higher degree of interaction and look for suppliers who will talk business solutions with them.
