What is unique about wireless? n Difficult media – interference and noise – quality varies over space and time – shared with “unwanted” 802.11 devices – shared with non-802 devices (unlicensed spectrum, microwave ovens) n Full connectivity cannot be assumed – “hidden node” problem n Mobility – variation in link reliability – battery usage: requires power management – want “seamless” connections n Security – no physical boundaries – overlapping LANs n Multiple international regulatory requirement
