INTRODUCTION TO WIRELESS NETWORKING

• Definition of wireless networking.


• A method of communication that allows devices to connect and exchange data
without the use of physical cables or wires. This type of network uses radio
waves, infrared, or other electromagnetic signals to transmit data between
devices such as computers, smartphones, tablets, and other networked devices.

• Wireless Devices: Laptops, smartphones, tablets.


• Wireless Access Points (WAP): Devices connecting clients to the network.
• Routers & Modems: Used to direct data to/from the internet.
• Wireless Standards: IEEE 802.11 (Wi-Fi), Bluetooth.
TYPES OF WIRELESS NETWORKS
•Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity):
•Common in homes and offices.
•802.11 standards (a, b, g, n, ac, ax).
•Bluetooth:
•Short-range communication.
•Devices like headsets, keyboards, and speakers.
•Cellular Networks:
•3G, 4G, 5G networks.
•Used for mobile data transmission.
