WHAT IS WIRELESS TECHNOLOGY?
Wireless technology is a technology that allows
people to communicate or data to be
transferred from one point to another without
using cables or wires. A lot of the
communication is done with radio frequency
and infrared waves.
ADVANTAGES OF WIRELESS
TECHNOLOGY
• Convenience and Mobility - Wireless technology liberates us from
the constraints of cables, making it easier to connect and use
devices wherever we go.
• Increased Productivity -With wireless connectivity, we can work
and collaborate efficiently, accessing information and resources
without being tied to a specific location.
• Cost-Effectiveness – Wireless technology reduces the need for
expensive infrastructure like cables, resulting in cost savings and
improved scalability.
TYPES OF WIRELESS TECHNOLOGY
• Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi
enables wireless internet connectivity,
providing seamless access to information and
services, anytime and anywhere. It is a family
of wireless network protocols based on the
IEEE 802.11 family of standards, which are
commonly used for local area networking of
devices and Internet access, allowing nearby
digital devices to exchange data by radio
waves.
•
• BLUETOOTH
Bluetooth is a short-range
wireless technology standard
that is used for exchanging
data between fixed and mobile
devices over short distances
and building personal area
networks (PANs).
BUILDING CONNECTIONS: LAN, MAN, AND WAN
• LAN – Local Area Network
A network of devices within a limited area, like
an office or a home, enabling seamless communication and
resource sharing. MAN – Metropolitan Area Network
Connects multiple LANs within a
larger geographical area, providing communication services
to organizations spanning a city or region. WAN – Wide Area
Network Extends
beyond a single geographical location, connecting LANs and
MANs across long distances, enabling global connectivity.
THE EVOLUTION OF MOBILE NETWORKS:
2G TO 5G
• 2G – Second Generation
Introduced digital voice communication
and text messaging, marking the shift from
analog to digital cellular networks. 3G –
Third Generation
Brought
faster data transfer speeds, enabling
mobile internet access, video calling, and a
wide array of multimedia services.
• 4G – Fourth Generation
Ushered in the era of high-speed
mobile broadband, facilitating seamless
streaming, online gaming, and enhanced
data transmission. 5G – Fifth
Generation
The next frontier of wireless connectivity,
promising lightning-fast speeds, ultra-low
latency, and revolutionizing technologies like
autonomous vehicles, smart cities, and
remote healthcare.
