Infrared Light Based WLAN
• Invisible to the naked eye
• Infrared Light LAN operate @ 820 nm.
• Least attenuation by air
• Advantages over Radio Waves:
• More Secure
• Less susceptible to common noises (e.g.oven)
• Better performance High data rate
• Disadvantage:
• Limited Coverage
9
Components
• Adapter Card (NIC)
• Protocol for accessing shared medium
• Transducer
• Similar to radio antenna
• Transmits & receive infrared light signal
