4. Glossary Access Point: An internetworking device that seamlessly connects wired and wireless networks. Ad-Hoc: An independent wireless LAN network formed by a group of computers, each with a network adapter.
Bit: A binary digit, which is either -0 or -1 for value, is the smallest unit for data. Bridge: An internetworking functi on that incorporates the lowest 2 layers of the OSI network protocol model. Browser: An applicat ion program that enables one to read the content and interact in the World Wide Web or Intranet.
DSSS: Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum. DSSS generates a redundant bit pattern for each bit to be transmitted. This bit pattern is called a chip (or chipping code). The longer the chip, the greater the pr obability that the or iginal data can be recovered.
Gateway : a device that interconnects netwo rks with different, incompatibl e communication protocols. HEX: Hexadecimal, HEX, consists of numbers from 0 – 9 an d letters from A – F.
Preamble Type: During transmission, the PSDU shall be appended to a PLCP preamble and header to creat e the PPDU. Two different preambles and headers are defined as the mandat ory supported long preamble and header which interoperates with the current 1 and 2 Mbi t/s DSSS specification as described in IEEE Std 802.
Throughput: The amount of data transferred su ccessfully from one point to another in a given period of time. WEP: Wired Equiv alent Privacy (WEP) is an encryption scheme used to protect wireless data communicati on. To enable the icon will prevent other stations without the same WEP key from linking with the AP.
