Wireless LANs and mobile networking: standards and future directions
TLDR
The article considers the network layer by discussing extensions that are being made to the widely used Internet protocol (IP) to deal with mobility (wired or wireless) and speculating on future directions for wireless LAN systems.Abstract:
The emerging widespread use of wireless LAN systems together with the users' desire for such systems to interoperate has created a requirement for standards. Many standards bodies are currently defining standards for wireless systems that relate to different layers of the networking protocol stack. Of these, two influential physical and data link layer standards, IEEE 802.11 and the European HIPERLAN, are described. The article then considers the network layer by discussing extensions that are being made to the widely used Internet protocol (IP) to deal with mobility (wired or wireless). The final standards that are discussed relate to wireless link management. The article concludes by speculating on future directions for wireless LAN systems.read more

IEEE 802.11 Wireless Local Area Networks
TL;DR: The performance investigation reveals that an IEEE 802.11 network may be able to carry traffic with time-bounded requirements using the point coordination function, however, the findings suggest that packetized voice traffic must be handled in conjunction with an echo canceler.

Blind equalization and multiuser detection in dispersive CDMA channels
Xiaodong Wang,H.V. Poor +1 more
TL;DR: This paper develops subspace-based blind techniques for joint suppression of MAI and ISI in the dispersive CDMA channels and shows that by incorporating this knowledge, the impulse response of each user's dispersive channel can be identified using a subspace method.
