Motivating Factors-
1. To understand how wireless networks works ( I only use devices….I do
not know what makes them work)
2. To have understanding about the different wireless technologies available
to us
3. To understand what kinds of networks can be set up using the
technologies
4. To study the related fundamentals, architecture, protocols and specific
applications related to each technology
5. To let me design and implement a small application based wireless
network
6. How Wireless Sensor Network works

16. 16
Analog and Digital Signals

17. 17
1. Analog signals have infinite amount of data
2. Produces infinite range of values
3. They are continuously variable
4. Difficult to store using memory
5. Provides more exact values but more difficult to work with
6. Addition of noise is easy
