Some obvious questions come to mind when considering wireless networking.
The standard was developed to maximize interoperability between differing brands of wireless LANs as well as to introduce a variety of performance improvements and benefits. Indoor range performance is shown to depend not only on transmit power and transmission rate, but on the product s response to multi-path and obstructions in the environment along the radio propagation path. A comparison of the effects of propagation with respect to a WLAN built-in printed circuit board antenna and a dipole are investigated in the dense office environment. This is a technical paper that analyzes an approach to determining the performance tradeoffs so that a network engineer can make an informed decision. But the non-engineer should read through it since it does have some good informations.
