Wide area network

show a simple diagram of wide area network (WAN) connected with few local area networks (LAN). WAN is a network that covers a large geographical area. Internet is one of the best example of WAN has the largest area network over national region and worldwide connected to let devices located at everywhere connect to each other through this enormous network area. LAN allows connecting to computers and devices in a limited geographical area, LAN normally build in small area such as home, office building

• Local Area Network A LAN, local area network, is a group of computers and other devices that share a wireless link to a server. A local area network is usually in a distinct location like an office where all the devices are close, hence the name local. It is used to share resources like a printer and can be used with a small group of people or a much larger one. Interconnection devices such as switches and routers are all used to connect the network to the internet. Wi-Fi or Ethernet can be used

4G is the integration of wireless LAN and Wide Area Network providing 100MHz for mobile and 1GHz for stationary devices. It uses packet switching networking and is based on Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing Access (OFDMA) technology. Wireless LANs soon will begin multiplying or more in throughput and range if a smart antenna technology named MIMO works out as its benefactors foresee. The Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Evolved Universal Terrestial Radio Access (E-UTRA) Long Term

Delay Analysis of Wireless Home Area Networks in a Smart Grid Abdulfattah Noorwali, Raveendra Rao, and Abdallah Shami Innovation Centre for Information Engineering (ICIE), Faculty of Engineering Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering University of Western Ontario, London, Ontario N6A 3K7, Canada Email: fanoorwal,rrao,ashami2g@uwo.ca Abstract—Smart grids are networks composed of several interconnected layers. The lowest layer consists of the Home Area Network (HAN), in which a set of Electrical

designing a WAN, numerous factors must be considered. Organizations attempting to connect multiple factories or offices and remote personnel must take into account a number of variables that will impact overall costs and network functionality. When designing and implementing wide area networks (WANs) that integrate voice, video,

is to design a WAN (wide area network) using a Cisco Packet Tracer simulation. The Step by step instructions included in this project are designed to help provide an inside view of how to design any type of network using the Cisco Packet Tracer network simulation software. In addition i will also be looking at other software’s that are similar to the Cisco Packet Tracer and analyse the strengths and weaknesses of the software. I will also be looking into the types of network devices needed to design
