Network Systems Design How-To

802.11n PHY layer--A tutorial
With 802.11n, wireless achieved data rates equal to wireline. This article discusses how that happened and the major aspects of the 802.11n PHY layer.

Enterprise Networking 802.11n PHY layer--A Tutorial--Part II With 802.11n, wireless achieved data rates equal to wireline. This article discusses the major aspects of the 802.11n PHY layer.		Enterprise Networking 802.11n PHY layer--A Tutorial--Part III Part 3: The structures of a MIMO-OFDM transmitter and receiver are analyzed and a data rate table is constructed.		Enterprise Networking Achieve High Availability in VoIP: An Implementation Example--Part II The SA Forum specifies open standards for high availability (HA) capable of matching those of traditional voice networks. To highlight ease of use and time-to-market benefits, a proof of concept was created combining SA Forum compliant middleware on a BladeCenter T platform with Asterisk, an open source VoIP solution. This article sets the stage and tells the story.
Enterprise Networking Crosstalk compensation using matrix methods In almost any force sensor application, extraneous forces will invariably cause crosstalk errors.Here's a mathematical technique that all but eliminates crosstalk errors.		Enterprise Networking Compression/decompression tradeoffs for data networking and storage Several design trade-offs to exist when building a high performance lossless data compression engine. Each of these trade-offs can vary the gate area of the end design greatly and have significant impact on the overall efficiency of the compressor (compression ratio).		Enterprise Networking Equivalent Results: A methodology to measure the effects of high-speed compression Real-world examples demo the benefits of using appropriate compression (lower pin counts, lower power consumption, reduced board area, and lower system costs).
