Implementing 802.11, 802.16, and 802.20 Wireless Networks : Planning, Troubleshooting, and Operations
內容描述
Description:
This book describes how
to plan, implement, and troubleshoot wi-fi network systems using all
standards—the widely used 802.11 family and the new 802.16 and 20—for public,
industrial, and commercial applications, such as waiting areas, conference
rooms, libraries, offices, public spaces such as coffeehouses, etc. This is
not a "home networking" or "personal wi-fi" guide, but instead a book aimed
people who need (for example) to implement a wi-fi network.
