8 Appendix

FX-DS540-AP, FX-DS540-APP

Brouter

A router with an added bridge function. When data received from one network cannot

be processed by the router because a different protocol is used, the bridge function can

be used to send the data on to the other network.

LAN(Local Area Network)

A network configured from mutual connections between computers within a limited

area. Also called an "intranet" or "business or regional data communications network."

RSSI(Receive Signal Strength Indication)

A numeric indicator of incoming signal strength.

Spectrum diffusion transmission

A method of transmission in which signals that are normally transmitted over a given

limited frequency band undergo narrow band modulation (primary modulation), then

again diffuse modulation (secondary modulation) to intentionally diffuse the signal

over a broad frequency spectrum.

DS(Direct Sequence)

A type of spectrum diffusion signal using narrow band modulation with phase

modulation, in which the diffusion is by means of phase modulation using a broad band

diffusion signal (pseudo random strings).

CSMA/CA(Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance)

CSMA is a method of avoiding collision by which wireless terminals listen before

transmitting and do not transmit if they can year transmissions from other wireless

terminals. CSMA/CA is CSMA plus additional collision avoidance functions.

Hidden Terminal Problem

When wireless terminals are farther apart then their electric signals can reach, or their

signals are obstructed by objects, neither may be able to receive the other's signals.

Any two such wireless terminals are said to be hidden from each other. In Ad Hoc

mode, because the carrier sense function is not effective between hidden terminals

there is a higher probability of collisions and throughput (the volume of information

sent in a given time interval) is reduced.

RTS(Reqest To Send)

In communication via AP, transmission is controlled by CSMA/CA plus RTS. In RTS,

a wireless terminal asks the AP if it is all right to transmit, and only transmits after an

OK-to-send acknowledgement signal is returned. This serves to avoid unnecessary

collisions when hidden terminals exist because hidden terminals cannot transmit.

Roaming

This term has the same meaning as roaming for a portable phone or PHS. The AP is in

the role commonly called the 'antenna/base station' for the phone or PHS, and the user

unit is in the role of the phone itself.
