Mini project : implementation and evaluation of wireless local area networks : document transcript

This is Mini Project documentation about implementing and evaluating wireless local area networks (LANs). It is part of the 2009/10 BSc in Computer and Network Technologies (course number 2ELE0072) from the University of Hertfordshire. All the mini projects are designed as level two modules of the undergraduate programmes.\ud \ud It includes a project specification, project briefs for days 1 and 2 and a preparation session brief.\ud \ud This mini-project involves the implementation of an “infrastructure” wireless network, the generation and transmission of packets and the measurement of network performance for TCP transport protocols by means of the “Wireshark” benchmarking tool.\ud \ud This open educational resource was released through the Higher Education Academy Engineering Subject Centre Open Engineering Resources Pilot project. The project was funded by HEFCE and the JISC/HE Academy UKOER programme
