Application Research of 802.11-Based Wireless Network in the Library

摘要

At the present stage, most of the university library networks are using the wired networks. However, as the university staffs demanding for the Internet is increasing, the limited access terminals and the electronic reading rooms have been far from meeting the reader demand. Building a wireless network on the basis of the wired network can meet readers' demanding for Internet access and retrieval. This paper first analyzes the architecture of the library wireless network, and then by compare, selects the IEEE 802.11 standard to set up the wireless network; the paper focuses on the standards both 802.11b and 802.11g.
