TYPES OF
TECHNOLOGIES
INTRODUCTION:
Wireless Fidelity termed as Wi-Fi uses the IEEE 802.11 specification to create a wireless local-area network.
A Wi-Fi network basically consists of a wired connection to the Internet that leads to a wireless router for transmutation and receiving data from individual devices, connecting them not only to the outside world but also to each other.
HOW WIFI WORKS?
1. All devices use a wireless adapter to convert request into a radio signal and broadcasts it into the air.
2. The Wi-Fi device, or wireless router, picks up the signal and translates it back into its original form.
3. The router passes the request to the Internet using a hardwired connection.
4. The Internet returns the requested information to the router across the same connection.
5. The router converts the information into a radio signal and broadcasts it into the air.
6. The computer or cell phone's wireless adapter picks up the information and displays it on your screen
WIFI TOPOLOGIES
Wifi have following topologies
AP-based topology (Infrastructure Mode)
Peer-to-peer topology (Ad-hoc Mode)
Point-to-multipoint bridge topology
Wi Fi Network
Wireless Standards
802.11
In 1997, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) created the first WLAN standard. They called it 802.11 after the name of the group formed to oversee its development. Unfortunately, 802.11 only supported a maximum network bandwidth of 2 Mbps - too slow for most applications. For this reason, ordinary 802.11 wireless products are no longer manufactured.
Wireless Standards
802.11b
IEEE expanded on the original 802.11 standard in July 1999, creating the 802.11b specification. 802.11b supports bandwidth up to 11 Mbps, comparable to traditional Ethernet.
Wireless Standards
802.11a
Supports bandwidth up to 54 Mbps and signals in a regulated frequency spectrum around 5 GHz. This higher frequency compared to 802.11b shortens the range of 802.11a networks. The higher frequency also means 802.11a signals have more difficulty penetrating walls and other obstructions.
Wireless Standards
802.11g
Attempts to combine the best of both 802.11a and 802.11b. 802.11g supports bandwidth up to 54 Mbps, and it uses the 2.4 Ghz frequency for greater range. 802.11g is backwards compatible with 802.11b, meaning that 802.11g access points will work with 802.11b wireless network adapters and vice versa.
Wireless Standards
802.11n
The newest IEEE standard in the Wi-Fi category is 802.11n.
802.11n connections support data rates of over 100 Mbps. 802.11n also offers somewhat better range over earlier Wi-Fi standards due to its increased signal.
This is a ppt about the recent trends in tech and wireless communication. As the is good document to read we are requesting to study the wireless communal harmony and peace to you.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

Any type of electrical or electronic operation without use of wires
Wireless connections use air to connect sending and receiving devices
Channel is a division in transmission medium
5. WIRELESS COMMUNICATION
Communication networks are generally implemented with some type of remote
information transmission system that uses electromagnetic waves.
Wireless communication may be via:
Radio frequency communication
Microwave communication
Infrared short range communication
6. Types of Networks
LAN – Local Area Network
MAN – Metropolitan Area Network
WAN – Wide Area Network
GSM – Global System for Mobile Communications
PCS – Personal Communication Services
Wi-Fi – Wireless Fidelity
GPRS – General Packet Radio Service
AMPS- Advanced Mobile Phone System
7. Wireless Network
What is a wireless network?
◦ A technology that enables two or more entities to communicate without
network cabling
8. Common Topologies
The wireless LAN connects to a wired LAN
There is a need of an access point that bridges wireless LAN traffic into the
wired LAN.
The access point (AP) can also act as a repeater for wireless nodes, effectively
doubling the maximum possible distance between nodes.
9. Common Topologies
Complete Wireless Networks
The physical size of the network is determined by the maximum reliable
propagation range of the radio signals.
Referred to as ad hoc networks
Are self-organizing networks without any centralized control
Suited for temporary situations such as meetings and conferences.
10. How do wireless LANs work?
Wireless LANs operate in almost the same way as
wired LANs, using the same networking protocols
and supporting the most of the same
applications.
11. How are WLANs Different?
They use specialized physical and data link protocols
They integrate into existing networks through access points which
provide a bridging function
They let you stay connected as you roam from one coverage area to
another
They have unique security considerations
They require different hardware
They offer performance that differs from wired LANs.
12. Physical and Data Link Layers
Physical Layer:
The wireless NIC takes frames of data from the link layer, scrambles the data in a
predetermined way, then uses the modified data stream to modulate a radio
carrier signal.
Data Link Layer:
Uses Carriers-Sense-Multiple-Access with Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA).
13. Integration With Existing Networks
Wireless Access Points (APs) - a small device that bridges wireless traffic to your
network.
Most access points bridge wireless LANs into Ethernet networks.
15. Roaming
Users maintain a continuous connection as they roam from one physical area
to another
Mobile nodes automatically register with the new access point.
Methods: DHCP, Mobile IP
IEEE 802.11 standard does not
address roaming, you may need
to purchase equipment from one
vendor if your users need to roam
from one access point to another.
16. What is 802.11?
A family of wireless LAN (WLAN) specifications developed by a
working group at the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers
(IEEE)
Defines standard for WLANs using the following four technologies
Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum
Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum
Infrared
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing
Versions: 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n
17. WIFI Standard..
802.11a
offers speeds with a theoretically maximum rate of 54Mbps in the 5 GHz band
Pros of 802.11a - fast maximum speed; regulated frequencies prevent signal interference
from other devices
Cons of 802.11a - highest cost; shorter range signal that is more easily obstructed
802.11b July 1999
offers speeds with a theoretically maximum rate of 11Mbps at in the 2.4 GHz spectrum band
Pros of 802.11b - lowest cost; signal range is good and not easily obstructed
Cons of 802.11b - slowest maximum speed; home appliances may interfere on the
unregulated frequency band
18. WIFI Standard..
802.11g 2002 and 2003
is a new standard for data rates of up to a theoretical maximum of 54 Mbps at 2.4 GHz.
Pros of 802.11g - fast maximum speed; signal range is good and not easily obstructed
Cons of 802.11g - costs more than 802.11b; appliances may interfere on the unregulated
signal frequency
802.11n (Recently)
Specifications providing for up to 300 Mbps of network bandwidth. 802.11n also offers
somewhat better range over earlier Wi-Fi standards due to its increased signal intensity
MIMO technology(Multiple Input Multiple output) MESH
19. WIFI Standard
Pros of 802.11n - fastest maximum speed and best signal range; more resistant to signal
interference from outside sources
Cons of 802.11n - standard is not yet finalized; costs more than 802.11g.
20. Operating Frequency
2.4 GHz
Indoor AP(Access Point) operate 2.4GHz due good penetration power.
5 GHz
Outdoor AP(Access Point) operate on 5GHz for maximum coverage.
Problem. If we have to install more than One AP at a single location what about
the Frequency interference?
21. Frequency Channel
Division of Frequency
To Avoid from interference we use non-overlapping frequency channel of same
frequency band
(Band 2.4GHz , 5.0 GHz)
Different Devices Support different number of frequency channel.
26. AP (ACCESS POINT)
Is a device that allows wireless devices to connect to a wired network using Wi-Fi, or
related standards. The AP usually connects to a router (via a wired network) as a
standalone device, but it can also be an integral component of the router itself. AP emit
the signal called SSID(Service Set Identifier).
AP ROLE
RAP (special scenario)
MAP (Special scenario)
Client
Repeater
27. RAP (Remote Access Point)
Provide up link to it’s nearest AP
RAP is connected via Bridge to the NOC (network operation Center)
RAP also provide the services to end client
28. MAP (Mesh Access Point)
Get uplink from RAP.
Provide services to end user
CLIENT
Single AP ,decently connected with network switch.
Bridge
A Bridge is used to provide uplink to a remote AP via Wireless
Repeater/Booster
Repeater and Booster are used to amplify the Signal on the behalf of other AP
29. WLC (Wireless LAN Controller)…
Assign the role of RAP & MAP
Control the traffic of Wireless Device
Auto Shifting of RAP (Incase Parent RAP is down)
Has ability to differentiate between Voice and DATA
Traditional roles of access points, such as association or authentication of wireless clients, are
done by the WLC
CAPWAP (Controlling and provisioning of wireless AP) IOS of WLC
CAPWAP is used to communicate between the controller and other lightweight access points
on the network
30. WLC (Wireless LAN Controller)
All the client (802.11) packets are encapsulated in a LWAPP packet by the AP and sent to the
WLC.
31. Security Measures
SSID hiding
A simple but ineffective method to attempt to secure a wireless network is to hide
the SSID (Service Set Identifier).This provides very little protection against anything but the most
casual intrusion efforts.
MAC ID filtering
One of the simplest techniques is to only allow access from known, pre-approved MAC
addresses. Most wireless access points contain some type of MAC ID filtering. However, an
attacker can simply sniff the MAC address of an authorized client and spoof this addresses.
Static IP addressing
Typical wireless access points provide IP addresses to clients via DHCP. Requiring clients to set
their own addresses makes it more difficult for a casual or unsophisticated intruder to log onto
the network, but provides little protection against a sophisticated attacker
32. 802.11 security
IEEE 802.1X is the IEEE Standard Authentication mechanisms to devices wishing to attach to a
Wireless LAN.
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy)
The 64-bit WEP data encryption method allows for a five-character (40-bit) input. Additionally,
24 factory-set bits are added to the forty-bit input to generate a 64-bit encryption key. data
encryption method allows for a five-character (40-bit) input. Additionally, 24 factory-set bits are
added to the forty-bit input to generate a 64-bit encryption key.
WPAv1 (Wi-Fi Protected Access)
The Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA and WPA2) security protocols were later created to address
the problems with WEP.WAP and WAP2 support up to 14 character.
