IEEE 802.11 Wireless Networking Overview: Features, Services, and Future Trends

This IEEE 802.11 overview discusses wireless differences, power management, bandwidth, security, addressing, and network protocols like 802.2, 802.3, 802.4, and 802.5. It explains the roles of MAC, PHY, OSI, logical link control, and upper-layer services, including mobility within BSS and ESS. The text delves into MAC details such as CSMA/CA, DCF, PCF, and physical layer technologies like DSSS and FHSS. It also explores future developments in the 802.11 standard, including 802.11a, 802.11b, and WPAN technologies for wearable devices.

  4. Topology BSS AP DS AP BSS Extended Service Set (ESS) Basic Service Set (BSS)

  5. Independent BSS

  6. Extended Service Set

  7. Topology Characteristics • Mobility • No transitions • BSS transition • ESS transition (not guaranteed) • Within ESS • BSSs that are partially overlap • BSSs that are physically disjoint • BSSs that are physically collocated

  8. Service primitives Request Confirm Indication responds Logical Architecture LLC CSMA/CA 2.4GHz 1W 300 meter MAC DSSS FHSS IR

  9. 802.11 services • Station Services • Authentication, deauthentication, privacy (WEP), MSDU delivery. • Disrtibuted System Services • Association, deassociation, distribution, integration, reassociation.

  10. How does a station join a BSS? • Scanning • Passive • Active • Authentication • Association

  11. MAC Details • CSMA/CA (time slot = 20 us) • Distributed Coordination Function (DCF). • Virtual carrier sense (RTS/CTS) • Exponential random backoff algorithm. • Priority Based • Point Coordination Function (PCF). • Segmentation & Reassembly.

  12. Physical – DSSS details • 2Mbps w/DQPSK or 1Mbps w/DBPSK • 14 channels (11 channels for US). • 5 plans – 3 max. non-overlapping channels.

  13. Physical – FHSS details • 1Mbps w/ 2 level GFSK • 79 1Mbps channels (2.402 – 2.480 GHz) • 78 sequences (3 sets of 26) • Minimum hop rate = 2.5 hop/s • Minimum hop distance = 6MHz

  14. 802.11 Future • 802.11a • High data rates 2.4GHz band: 5GHz band: 20 Mbps • 802.11b • High data rates 2.4GHz band: FH 4.5Mbps: DS 25.5Mbps • WPAN • Wearable Devices (30 feet, 1Mbps, 0.5 in3, lower power, low cost).
