Preamble:

The ‘preamble’ is a sequence of bits transmitted at 1Mbps that

 

 

synchronises wireless transmission within the network. The Short

 

Preamble and header may be used to minimize overhead and,

 

 

thus, maximize the network data throughput. However, the Short

 

 

Preamble is supported only by the IEEE 802.11b (High- Rate)

 

 

standard and not by the original IEEE 802.11standard; meaning that

 

stations using Short-Preamble cannot communicate with stations

 

 

implementing the original version of the protocol.

 

PSDU:

PLCP service data unit

 

Roaming:

A LAN mobile user moves around an ESS and enjoys a continuous

 

connection to an Infrastructure network.

 

RTS: Request

To Send. An RS-232 signal sent from the transmitting station to the

 

receiving station requesting permission to transmit.

 

RTS Threshold:

Transmitters contending for the medium may not be aware of each

 

other. RTS/CTS mechanism can solve this “Hidden Node Problem”.

 

If the packet size is smaller than the preset RTS Threshold size, the

 

RTS/CTS mechanism will NOT be enabled.

 

SSID:

Service Set Identifier, which is a unique name shared among all

 

 

clients and nodes in a wireless network. The SSID must be identical

 

for each clients and nodes in the wireless network.

 

Subnet Mask:

The method used for splitting IP networks into a series of sub-

 

 

groups, or subnets. The mask is a binary pattern that is matched up

 

with the IP address to turn part of the host ID address field into a

 

 

field for subnets.
