Something About Wireless Network

 try to write something here about software, but just got nothing in head at moment.
yesterday had a conversition with Luke about his master project, he plans to create a software to control different wireless networks, its intresting to me. i do have some ideas about it also, so just write down something that could be treat as some basic info.
802.11 std which is the first wireless protocal, 2.4GHz range, 1M/2M bps.
802.11b 2.4GHz range, 11Mbps, 90m
802.11a 5GHz range, 54Mbps, 30m
802.11g 2.4GHz range, 54Mbps, 90m
802.11n 5G/2.4GHz range, 600Mbps, 182m

these are the most in use. a and b are both developed from original one, b is in lower frq. with lower speed, good side is big range, actually if the signal is weak, b will reduce down the speed. problem is 2.4GHz range is heavily used by many other devices as microwave, bluetooth, telephone.
a is modified the phy layer to allow it work in higher frq. 5Ghz with better speed perfomance. bad side is the high frq. is easy be absorbed by normal walls blocks, so the transfer rang is limited to 30M only.
g is a simple combinition with a and b, use a's phy layer standard(OFDM), and b's frq.

about the frq. range, as 2.4Ghz(b,g) is from 2.401 to 2.473, divided into 11 channals, each channal is about 20/22M*2 width, 5M between each center frq. base on these, channal 1,6,11 is considered as the most suitable channal to be use as they not cover others or only a small bit. and it may not leagal to use some channal in some country.

another thing i try to mention is the 802.11n, its just finished this sep 2009. so there is only numbers for it, not really have n network worked in normal life. but it suggest add more new features into the original standard, this time not only the phy layer but also others. anyway it is considered as the the big one in further, and you could found many wireless device support it as my new laptop :P

now back on the project, so in order to avoid the collisions, one idea is to modify the channals, first you need a device to monitor the 11 channals to see if any of them in use. then you assign a new channal with less repeat part. but as shown, in this way, you could got 3 networks work togther(90M range) with 1,6,11 channals, otherwise you will got a significant duplicate between channals.
another idea is to very the protocal, or i should say let a,b,g,n work together. eg. for a network with small range(30M), using a, bigger use g, no speed request use b, etc. it will require every AP has a ability to identify their situations any every clients will support all these protocals.
of couse there always has another way, Very the frq range and got more channals, but this idea will be a big one, as in order to generate signal cover a big range, you need to specify your electronic components, ics, such signal generators, it can be painful to change, as you may need to design some thing to support 2 to the power of 128/256,, that is the only way i could suggest to generate a bigger range signal and i do not think it could be solved by software at moment.

ok just here. do not wannt write any more.. really need somebody to talk about these ideas. every time think like these just let me feel lonely.

i wanna run away never say goodbey
