DESCRIPTION:
A detailed discussion of key throughput, robustness, and reliability enhancing features (such as MIMO, multi-user MIMO, 40/80/160 MHz channels, transmit beamforming and packet aggregation) is given, plus clear summaries of issues surrounding legacy interoperability and coexistence. This comprehensive overview describes the underlying principles, implementation details and key enhancing features of 802.11n and 802.11ac. Now updated and significantly revised, this 2nd edition contains new material on 802.11ac throughput, including revised chapters on MAC and interoperability, plus new chapters on 802.11ac PHY and multi-user MIMO. For many of these features the authors outline the motivation and history behind their adoption into the standard. An ideal reference for designers of WLAN equipment, network managers, and researchers in the field of wireless communications.. If you've been searching for a way to get up to speed on IEEE 802.11n and 802.11ac WLAN standards without having to wade through the entire specification, then look no further

Praise for the first edition: 'Books like this one are invaluable because they provide the details and the background that allow readers to answer the questions 'what is likely to be in the final standard?' and 'how does it work?' Eldad and Robert should be congratulated on taking up the challenge.' Andrew Myles, Chairman, WiFi Alliance
A Great Primer on 802.11n Sean Christofferson Several months ago, I started on a project that required me to be able to dig into low-level 802.11n device driver code and understand how it worked. I knew nothing about 802.11 at the time, and it quickly became apparent that the 802.11 standards documents were not written with the neophyte in mind. I looked around for books to get me started, but most were focused on network design and implementation, and they weren't much help in understanding the frame-by-frame details.Then I found this book.Perahia and Stacey provide a lucid introducti. Amazon Customer said Excellent technical description of 80"Excellent technical description of 802.11 standard" according to Amazon Customer. This book is an excellent description of the 802.11 standard physical layer and mac design as well as deployment issues. The book provides adequate detail so the reader can understand what the 802.11 standard contains and how one can design a network with 802.11, enhance the standard, or implement an ASIC or software for 802.11. The book also contains some implementation related discussions which can be very useful to those interested in implementing the standard in ASICs or products. The authors are obviously quite technical and have also . .11 standard.

Perahia and Stacey have a very straight forward way of writing and get right to the meat of what you need to know to understand and use WLAN effectively, or to create your own implementations. The book contains all the technical details you need to understand the IEEE 802.11 standards (which on their own can be a little cryptic if you are not a regular at IEEE meetings). In addition to being a great reference book, you will also find history and reasons for choices made in the standard. There are lots of practical information about how feat
