My Review on the book

This book gives a good analysis of wireless local area networks (WLAN). It covers wireless packet analysis and the evolution of WLANs & overview of its security. The best feature of this book is that all chapters are contributed by major players in the wireless LAN industry making it interesting to learn the industry approach to it. The book discusses the latest developments on the WLAN standards and how IEEE 802.11 standard works to meet the growing need of Quality of Service (QoS) and multimedia support in wireless local area networks. It discusses the challenges when building a secure wireless local area network. It gives a good introduction of bluetooth and its coexistence with WLANs. I would not recommend this book if you are totally new to the concept of wireless technology as it gets a little technical but if you have a fair idea about it then this book is a must read. I enjoyed reading this book and would recommend to people in the wireless networking industry, graduate students and anyone who is interested to learn more about a new and current technology.

Must buy for 802.11 techies

This book is a solid reference on important issues related to wireless LAN design, particularly 802.11/Wi-Fi technologies. Many chapters are contributed by leading wireless LAN companies, including comprehensive chapters on 802.11 standards from WildPackets and TI, network security chapters from Cisco, Agere and Colubris, a quality of service chapter from Sharewave (co-chair of the 802.11e task group), Wi-Fi hotspot and cellphone/802.11 integration chapters from Nokia and Alcatel, a Bluetooth primer from Ericsson, an interesting chapter on Bluetooth/802.11 interference written by the chair of the study group, an informative ultra-wideband introduction written by the pioneers at TimeDomain. I find the foreward from Dr. Kleinrock very insightful too. The long preface provides a useful prelude to all the chapters and is written by the editor who has published an outstanding wireless LAN book that was distributed with Cisco's Aironet products. Overall, this is a fine effort from the editor and is not just another one of those superficial 802.11/Wi-Fi books that are currently flooding the market.
