	IEEE 802.11 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The original version of the standard IEEE 802.11 released in 1997 specifies two raw data rates of 1 and 2 megabits per second (Mbit/s) to be transmitted via infrared (IR) signals or in the Industrial Scientific Medical frequency band at 2.4 GHz.
		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).

	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.
		As IEEE 802.11 describes it, the distribution system is not necessarily a network nor does the standard place any restrictions on how the distribution system is implemented, only on the services it must provide.
		The 802.11 architecture is comprised of several components and services that interact to provide station mobility transparent to the higher layers of the network stack.

	IEEE 802.11
		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.
		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 is a popular specification for unlicensed wireless computer networking.

	OhioLINK ETD: Ge, Ye
		By extending the analytical model, we study the impact of AIFS values in IEEE 802.11e on rate differentiation between different traffic classes, demonstrate that the per flow throughput ratio between different traffic classes is a function of both the persistent probability (or the contention window size) and AIFS values.
		We associate the contention window based backoff scheme in the current 802.11 mac protocol to the proposed p-persistent MAC protocol through a simple relation between the contention window, $cw$, and the persistent probability, p.
		Through analytical modeling and simulation, we demonstrate that by assigning appropriate different transmission probabilities to wireless nodes of different classes, it is feasible to provide service differentiation and achieve the targeted throughput ratio among different classes, while at the same time, maximizing the total channel utilization.
