 IEEE 802.11 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The spectral mask for 802.11b requires that the signal be attenuated by at least 30 dB from its peak energy at ±11 MHz from the center frequency, and attenuated by at least 50 dB from its peak energy at ±22 MHz from the center frequency.
Channels 10 and 11 are the only channels which work in all parts of the world, because Spain hasn't licensed channels 1 to 9 for 802.11b operation.
Although the statement that channels 1, 6, and 11 are "non-overlapping" is incomplete, the 1, 6, 11 guideline has merit.

According to Paul Nikolich, chair of the IEEE 802 committee, "A test specification is particularly important for 802.11 given the complexity of the protocol and the challenges of wireless test.
Consequently, situations arise such as the fact that 802.11b channels 1 through 11 are used in the United States, but 1 through 14 are in use in Japan.
It wasn't until the introduction of the 802.11b standards (allowing data rates up to 11 Mbps) that Wi-Fi (as we know it) was really born.

 Introduction to IEEE 802.11 - Intelligraphics
The 802.11 MAC layer is forced to handle station mobility in a fashion that is transparent to the upper layers of the 802 LAN stack.
Another extension to the standard (802.11b) defines 11 Mbps and 5.5 Mbps data rates (in addition to the 1 and 2Mbps rates) utilizing an extension to DSSS called High Rate DSSS (HR/DSSS).
For compatibility purposes, the 802.11 MAC must appear to the upper layers of the network as a ‘standard’ 802 LAN.

 802.11 wireless LAN Data rate
Rather than using the Barker code, 802.11 wireless LAN uses CCK (Complementary Code Keying) to achieve 11 Mbps.
Each bit is "encoded" by the 11 bit Barker code, and each group of 11 chips encodes one bit of data.
Likewise, at 2 Mbps, 2 bits per symbol are modulated with QPSK, 11 Mchips per second, and thus have 22 MHz of spectrum.

As mentioned in chapter 2.1.2 also the data rates of 8 Mbit/s and 11 Mbit/s with the DSSS are possible to achieve while using WLAN that supports the standard IEEE 802.11b [6, 12].
The first phase standard was followed by an extension IEEE 802.11b, which supports data rates up to 11 Mbit/s with the radio frequency technology direct sequence spread spectrum.
DSSS supports bigger data rates (up to 11 Mbit/s) and FHSS equipment are usually inexpensive compared to DSSS equipment.

According to the IEEE 802.11 Working Group Project Timelines, the 802.11n standard is not due for final approval until July 2007.
The IEEE set up a dedicated task group to create a replacement security solution, 802.11i (previously this work was handled as part of a broader 802.11e effort to enhance the MAC layer).

Each bit is "encoded" by the 11-bit Barker code, and each group of 11 chips encodes one bit of data.
To achieve 11 Mbps, the vendors had to change the way they went about encoding the data.

 What is 802.11B
However when devices move beyond the optimal range for 11 Mbps operation, or if substantial interference is present, 802.11b devices will transmit at lower speeds, falling back to 5.5, 2, and 1 Mbps.
With 802.11b WLANs, mobile users can get Ethernet levels of performance, throughput, and availability.
For example, if the network requirement is for high performance (5.5 Mbps or 11 Mbps) and complete coverage, long range at lower network speeds (1 Mbps and 2 Mbps) may make it difficult to employ a channel reuse pattern while maintaining high performance.

IEEE is the Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers, and the use of equipment based on the 802.11b standard is becoming a very inexpensive and popular way for computers to communicate over radio, especially over short distances such as within an office building.
Because of the popularity of 802.11 equipment, the FCC is soliciting comments for future spectrum allocation for similar specifications, and the ARRL has formed a working group for the use of 802.11 specifications under Part 97 rules (with corresponding modifications such as the possible use of higher power).
IEEE 802.11b RF transmission conforms to FCC Part 15 rules for unlicensed operation of low-power devices, so this topic is somewhat analogous to discussing the design and usage of cordless telephones.

IEEE 802.11 device transmissions are of low energy and short range, so the range of this attack is limited by the signal strength of the attacking device, which is typically low.
Previously, attacks against the availability of IEEE 802.11 networks have required specialised hardware and relied on the ability to saturate the wireless frequency with high-power radiation, an avenue not open to discreet attack.
