This book, written by a member of the IEEE committee that develops WLAN standards, is the first book addressing that need. It covers test equipment and methods for the RF (wireless) and physical layers of WLAN, protocols, the application layer, and manufacturing testing. The emphasis throughout is on underlying engineering principles along with modern metrics and methodologies, ensuring this book gives both a solid theoretical b 410 0$aCommunications engineering series. 606 $aWireless LANs$xSecurity measures 606 $aLocal area networks (Computer networks)$xSecurity measures 615 0$aWireless LANs$xSecurity measures. 615 0$aLocal area networks (Computer networks)$xSecurity measures. 676 $a004.6/8 700 $aAlexander$b Tom$01710760 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910813080403321 996 $aOptimizing and testing WLANs$94101617 997 $aUNINA
