IEEE802.11 Architecture Overview

One common MAC supporting multiple PHYs

Two configurations

– “Independent” (ad hoc) and “Infrastructure”

CSMA/CA (collision avoidance) with optional “point coordination”

Connectionless Service

– Transfer data on a shared medium without reservation

– data comes in bursts

– user waits for response, so transmit at highest speed possible

– is the same service as used by Internet

Isochronous Service

– reserve the medium for a single connection and provide a continues stream of bits, even

when not used

– works only when cells (using the same frequencies) are not overlapping.

Robust against noise and interference (ACK)

Hidden Node Problem (RTS/CTS)

Mobility (Hand-over mechanism)

Security (WEP)

Power savings (Sleep intervals)
