1. Assignment 3: Wireless World
With the fast-moving technology, the world has adopted
wireless technology and has become reliant on it. You nearly
use your wireless devices to do everything such as checking
your grocery lists to handling complicated business decisions
through third-party services. The need for high bandwidth and
greater capacity has never been important, unless you shifted to
wireless technology.
In this assignment, you will conduct research on a wireless
network and compare it with another wireless network.
Tasks:
Create a 4- to 5-page paper and address the following:
Identify and describe any three uses for a wireless network.
Two common wireless networks are Voice over Internet
Protocol (VoIP) and wireless network interface cards (wireless
NICs). Smartphones and personal digital assistants (PDAs) also
rely on Wi-Fi networks for network connectivity. Many of these
devices have mobile broadband connectivity as well.
Compare and contrast the identified uses of the wireless
network chosen by you with the other one, out of the ones
mentioned above.
Explain how RFID tags might be used in conjunction with
product identification or inventory systems.
Compare and contrast RFID with any another technology that is
similar in nature.
Note
: Utilize at least three scholarly or professional sources (beyond
your textbook) in your paper. Your paper should be written in a
clear, concise, and organized manner; demonstrate ethical
scholarship in accurate representation and attribution of sources
(i.e., in APA format); and display accurate spelling, grammar,
