IEEE 802.11 Technical Tutorial Introduction

The purpose of this document is to give technical readers a basic overview of the new 802.11
Standard, enabling them to understand the basic concepts, principle of operations, and some of the
reasons behind some of the features and/or components of the Standard.
The document does not cover the entire Standard and does not provide enough information for the
reader to implement an 802.11 compliant device (for this purpose the reader should refer to the
Standard itself).
