Implementation of the Magic WAND wireless ATM modem
01 January 1999
The Magic WAND project (wireless ATM network demonstrator) is a project within the European Union ACTS (Advanced Communications Technologies and Services) initiative. The project aims to design, verify, implement and demonstrate a wireless access network for ATM LANs. The WAND system is designed to operate in the 5.2 GHz band for indoor environments with user mobility limited to walking speed. This paper addressed the design and implementation of the wireless transmitter and receiver units and discusses complexity and performance
