Chapter 1 Terminology Introduction
This chapter will introduce terminology about IEEE802.11 what referred by this manual. And in
this character we will explain terminology according to IEEE802.11 Std.
Ad-Hoc Network(Peer to Peer)
A network composed solely of stations within mutual communication range of each other via
the WIRELESS medium(WM). An Ad Hoc network is typically created in a spontaneous
manner. The principal distinguishing characteristic of an ad hoc network is limited temporal
and spatial extent. These limitations allow the act of creating and dissolving the ad hoc
network to be sufficiently straightforward and convenient so as to be achievable by
nontechnical users of the network facilities; i.e., no specialized “technical skills” are required
and little or no investment of time or additional resources is required beyond the stations that
are to participate in the ad hoc network. The term ad hoc is often used as slang to refer to an
independent basic service set(IBSS).
Infrastructure Network
The infrastructure includes the distribution system medium (DSM), access point(AP), and
portal entities. It is also the logical location of distribution and integration service functions of
an extended service set(ESS). An infrastructure contains one or more APs and zero or more
portals in addition to the distribution system(DS).
Basic Service Set(BSS)
A set of stations controlled by a single coordination function.
BSSID
Basic service set identifier
Station service(SS)
The set of services that support transport of medium access control(MAC) service data
units(MSDUs) between stations within a basic service set(BSS)
SSID
Station service identifier
-1-
Association
The service used to establish access point/station(AP/STA) mapping and enable STA
invocation of the distribution system services(DSSs).
Authentication
The service used to establish the identify of one station as a member of the set of stations
authorized to associate with another station.
Channel
an instance of medium use for the purpose of passing protocol data units(PDUs) that may be
used simultaneously, in the same volume of space, with other instances of medium use(no
other channels) by other instances of the same physical layer(PHY), with an acceptably low
frame error ratio due to mutual interference. Some PHYs provide only one channel, whereas
others provide multiple channels. Examples of channel types are shown in the following tables
Single channel
n-channel
Narrowband radio-frequency(RF) channel
Frequency division multiplexed channels
Baseband infrared
Direct sequence spread spectrum(DSSS) with
code division multiple access
Wired equivalent privacy(WEP)
The optional cryptographic confidentiality algorithm specified by IEEE 802.11 used to provide
data confidentiality that is subjectively equivalent to the confidentiality of a wired local area
network(LAN) medium that does not employ cryptographic techniques to enhance privacy.

Chapter 2 System Requirements
Before installing the adapter and related sof `tware, make sure the computer system meets the
minimum requirements described below.
2-1 Hardware
The adapter can be installed in any recent-model IBM-type microcomputer with a PCMCIA on
notebook or PCI slot on desktop which support CardBus or PCI interface. The Cardbus adapter is a
Type II CardBus card, and can be installed in a Type II or Type III CardBus slot.
2-2 Software
The drivers included with the adapter allow the adapter to be used in Microsoft Windows 98, ME,
2000, and XP.
