Implementing 802.11, 802.16, and 802.20 Wireless Networks : Planning, Troubleshooting, and Operations (實施802.11、802.16與802.20無線網路：規劃、故障排除與運營)

Description:

This book describes how to plan, implement, and troubleshoot wi-fi network systems using all standards—the widely used 802.11 family and the new 802.16 and 20—for public, industrial, and commercial applications, such as waiting areas, conference rooms, libraries, offices, public spaces such as coffeehouses, etc. This is not a "home networking" or "personal wi-fi" guide, but instead a book aimed people who need (for example) to implement a wi-fi network.
