Book Description
Respond to the growing demand for high performance networks with this practical guide!

Product Description
As the demand for higher bandwidth has lead to the development of increasingly complex wireless technologies, an understanding of both wireless networking technologies and radio frequency (RF) principles is essential for implementing high performance and cost effective wireless networks.

Wireless Networking Technology clearly explains the latest wireless technologies, covering all scales of wireless networking from personal (PAN) through local area (LAN) to metropolitan (MAN). Building on a comprehensive review of the underlying technologies, this practical guide contains 'how to' implementation information, including a case study that looks at the specific requirements for a voice over wireless LAN application. This invaluable resource will give engineers and managers all the necessary knowledge to design, implement and operate high performance wireless networks.

· Explore in detail wireless networking technologies and understand the concepts behind RF propagation.
· Gain the knowledge and skills required to install, use and troubleshoot wireless networks.
· Learn how to address the problems involved in implementing a wireless network, including the impact of signal propagation on operating range, equipment inter-operability problems and many more.
· Maximise the efficiency and security of your wireless network.

5.0 out of 5 stars PERSONAL PAN WIRELESS NETWORKING!!, March 7, 2008
Are you a wireless networking system developer? If you are, then this book is for you! Author Steve Rackley, has done an outstanding job of writing a book which aims to give the reader a detailed insight into the wide variety of wireless networking technology available today.

Rackley, begins by introducing you to the logical and physical architecture of wireless networks. In addition, the author describes the basics of wireless communications. The author then focuses on what perhaps is the most important operating scale for wireless networks: The Local area Network. Next, he takes a detailed look at wireless networking technologies on the personal area scale, including Bluetooth, wireless USB, ZigBee, IrDA and Near Field Communications. Then, he looks at how the metropolitan area networking challenges of scalability, flexibility and quality of service have been addressed by wireless MAN standards, particularly WiMax. The author continues by looking at four emerging technologies: wireless mesh routing, network independent handover, gigabit wireless LANs and cognitive radio. Finally, he provides a quick reference guide to some of the key online information sites and resources relating to wireless networking.

This most excellent book provides the reader with sufficient depth to gain an understanding of the fundamentals and diversity of the principles of wireless networking technologies. Perhaps more importantly, this book will serve as a foundation on which, a discussion of the principal aspects of wireless network implementation can be grounded!
