Wireless Network Coexistence

EARTHY DETAILS ON OVER-THE-AIR NETWORKSIf you're responsible for wireless systems -- design, maintenance, or operation -- put yourself in the capable hands of Dr. Bob Morrow. One of this country's leading wireless experts and trainers, Morrow provides the technical insight, practical methods, and been-there-done-that confidence you need to blend disparate pieces to create an optimal system.NITTY-GRITTY KNOW-HOWAn authority with over two decades of experience in wireless design, and an instructor in wireless for one of the world's leading technical training firms, Morrow here shares his top dollar expertise. In Wireless Network Coexistence, he shows you how to choose the right services for the differing applications integrate and configure protocols for seamless, efficient performance, and make wireless systems function smoothly and reliably, together or separately-with interference minimized. Wireless Network Coexistence, helps you:Evaluate the suitability of Wi-Fi (802.11 a, b, and g), Bluetooth (802.15.1), WiMedia (802.15.3), and ZigBee (802.15.4), to your needs, objectives, and circumstancesDiscover how the rules in various regulatory domains influenced the development of wireless standardsMeet the significant challenges of designing and deploying multiple wireless networks within the same physical areaLeverage the benefits in all flavors of 802.11 within the standard's stringent restrictionsMake the right choices in signal propagation, advanced modulation techniques, and network connectivity optionsDevelop solutions for operating frequencies, packet structure, and channel access mechanismsAnalyze the extensive passive coexistence mechanisms integrated into the various wireless network standardsLearn techniques for reducing interference through active coexistence methodsDetermine the suitability of using ultra-wideband for communicating at high data ratesBuild flexible systems ready for developing technologies, such as Wi-Media and ZigBeeStudy the nature of interference from the microwave ovenDiscover the safety implications of operating wireless networks onboard commercial aircraftTHE INTEGRATED GUIDE TO WIRELESSPacked with tested solutions, essential information on equipment, and helpful formulas, Wireless Network Coexistence is a real-world guide to designing and building wireless systems.
