  2. Received signal strength indicator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Received_signal_strength...

    In 802.11 implementations. In an IEEE 802.11 system, RSSI is the relative received signal strength in a wireless environment, in arbitrary units. RSSI is an indication of the power level being received by the receiving radio after the antenna and possible cable loss. Therefore, the greater the RSSI value, the stronger the signal.

    Techniques. v. t. e. Wi-Fi (/ ˈwaɪfaɪ /) [1][a] is a family of wireless network protocols based on the IEEE 802.11 family of standards, which are commonly used for local area networking of devices and Internet access, allowing nearby digital devices to exchange data by radio waves. These are the most widely used computer networks, used ...

  4. Wi-Fi 6 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi_6

    Wi-Fi 6, or IEEE 802.11ax, is an IEEE standard from the Wi-Fi Alliance, for wireless networks (WLANs). It operates in the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, [9] with an extended version, Wi-Fi 6E, that adds the 6 GHz band. [10] It is an upgrade from Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac), with improvements for better performance in crowded places.

  5. Wireless triangulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_triangulation

    Wireless triangulation is a method of determining the location of wireless nodes using IEEE 802.11 standards. [1] It is normally implemented by measuring the RSSI signals strength. [ 2 ]

    This notebook computer is connected to a wireless access point using a PC Card wireless card. An example of a Wi-Fi network. A wireless LAN (WLAN) is a wireless computer network that links two or more devices using wireless communication to form a local area network (LAN) within a limited area such as a home, school, computer laboratory, campus, or office building.

  8. List of WLAN channels - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels

    Wireless LAN (WLAN) channels are frequently accessed using IEEE 802.11 protocols. The 802.11 standard provides several radio frequency bands for use in Wi-Fi communications, each divided into a multitude of channels numbered at 5 MHz spacing (except in the 45/60 GHz band, where they are 0.54/1.08/2.16 GHz apart) between the centre frequency of the channel.

    They do not exist in the official nomenclature. [6][7][8] IEEE 802.11ac-2013 or 802.11ac is a wireless networking standard in the IEEE 802.11 set of protocols (which is part of the Wi-Fi networking family), providing high-throughput wireless local area networks (WLANs) on the 5 GHz band. [c] The standard has been retroactively labelled as Wi-Fi ...
