While there are countless books on wireless networks, few actually
quantify the key performance-limiting factors of wireless local
area networks (WLANs) and describe various methods for improving
WLAN performance. Fulfilling these needs, Improving the Performance
of Wireless LANs: A Practical Guide provides both theoretical
background and empirical results for the optimum planning and
deployment of high performance WLAN systems in different
residential and commercial buildings. Useful to students,
faculties, researchers, engineers, and network developers, this
must-have book not only explains the fundamentals of WLAN systems,
including WLAN features and standards, but also: Supplies strategic
guidelines for WLAN system design, modeling, and performance
evaluation Includes radio propagation and site measurements as well
as simulations for various network design scenarios Discusses
environmental effects on WLAN performance, protocol redesign for
routing and MAC, and traffic distribution Contains numerous
illustrations and examples, plus chapter summaries, review
questions, reading lists, mini-projects, an extensive glossary, and
a list of acronyms Examines emerging and future network
technologies, such as next generation Wi-Fi (802.11ac), very high
throughput Wi-Fi (802.11ad), wireless mesh networking (802.11s),
emergency QoS (802.11u), and vehicle-to-vehicle communications
(802.11p) Improving the Performance of Wireless LANs: A Practical
Guide makes the teaching, learning, and researching of advanced
wireless network design and performance a more active process by
using practical tools and exercises to add life to this highly
technical subject.
