Design of a WLAN experiment: a case study
Philip M. Tsang, Paul C. K. Kwok, Sandy Y-M · 2005
WLAN research and experiments can take on a positivist or post-positivist paradigm, depending upon the set aims and objectives. In WLAN experiments, one paradigm can take the form of site-surveying radio frequency modelling. This entails a physical site survey of empirical measurements or the utilisation of software tools (such as OPNET or NEC2), with a built-in or user definable signal propagation model. In this research paper, the authors describe a longitudinal WLAN study of the largest WLAN experiments in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR) of China, and the implications for engineering education are also discussed.
