About the Book

If you've been searching for a way to get up to speed quickly on IEEE 802.11n without having to wade through the entire standard, then look no further. This comprehensive overview describes the underlying principles, implementation details, and key enhancing features of 802.11n. A detailed discussion of the key throughput, robustness, and reliability enhancing features (such as MIMO, 40 MHz channels, and packet aggregation) is given, in addition to a clear summary of the issues surrounding legacy interoperability and coexistence. Advanced topics such as beamforming and fast link adaption are also covered. With numerous MAC and physical layer examples and simulation results included to highlight the benefits of the new features, this is an ideal reference for designers of WLAN equipment, and network managers whose systems adopt the new standard. It is also a useful distillation of 802.11n technology for graduate students and researchers in the field of wireless communication.

Table of Contents:
Preface; Foreword; 1. Introduction; Part I. Physical layer: 2. Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing; 3. MIMO/SDM basics; 4. PHY interoperability with 11a/g legacy OFDM devices; 5. High throughput; 6. Robust performance; Part II. Media access control layer: 7. Media access control; 8. MAC throughput enhancements; 9. Advanced channel access techniques; 10. Interoperability and coexistence; 11. MAC frame formats; Part III. Transmit beamforming: 12. Transmit beamforming; Acronyms; Index.

About the Author :
Eldad Perahia is a member of the Wireless Standards and Technology group at Intel Corporation, Chair of the IEEE 802.11 Very High Throughput Study Group, and the IEEE 802.11 liaison to IEEE 802.19. Prior to joining Intel, Dr. Perahia was the 802.11n lead for Cisco Systems. He was awarded his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from the University of California, Los Angeles and has fourteen patents in various areas of wireless communications. Robert Stacey works in Intel Corporation's Wireless Standards and Technology group. He was a member of the 802.11 high throughput task group (TGn) and a key contributor to the various proposals culminating in the final joint proposal submission that became the basis for the 802.11n draft standard and has numerous patents filed in the field of wireless communications.

Review :
'Books like this one are invaluable because they provide the details and the background that allow readers to answer the questions, 'What is likely to be in the final standard and how does it work?' Eldad and Robert should be congratulated on taking up the challenge.' Andrew Myles, Chairman of Wi-Fi Alliance
