Emerging Wireless LANs, Wireless PANs, and

This book introduces and explains current and emerging IEEE 802 wireless standards/drafts to readers, including IEEE wireless standards (Wireless LANs; Wireless PANs; and Wireless MANs. It also provides information on MAC (medium Access control) and the Physical layer protocols for all these standards/drafts with an emphasis on channel access and power management.
