WPA
WiFi Protected Access
WIFI security Protagoras WEP -> WPA - WPA2
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA, WPA2 ) is an authentication program carried out under
the monitoring of Wi-Fi Alliance. It is a security protocol that indicates that the network
equipment satisfies the security protocol established by Wi-Fi Alliance. WPA indicates
that the existing LAN card operation complies with the expansion protocol standards
completely and WPA2 mark indicates that the relevant device does the same.
WPS
WiFi Protected Setup
Press the WPS buttons of the wireless Rx and wireless device (during the 120 seconds of
waiting time) to establish connection without entering password: there are PBC, PIN,
and NFC type.
PMF
Protected Management Frames
Protects the frame.
RADIUS
Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service
NSS
Number of Spatial Streams
DTIM
Delivery traffic indication message
Short GI
Short Guard Interval
The guard interval is a waiting time between sending data continuously in a wireless
network to reduce the impact of data. For 802.11 a/g, it is 800 nsec, but for 802.11n, it is
set to 400n sec so that the sub carrier can be used to compensate for the reduced guard
interval to make the total throughout to reach 72Mbps. Reducing the guard is provided
as a optional when a WLAN is established as interval needs agreement between the
transmission and reception ends.
OFDM
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing
MIMO
Multi Input Multi Output
MIMO is a multi I/O technology. The wireless quality depends on how far the signal is
and which route the signal is received. MIMO uses multiple antennas to receive signals
coming in along multiple paths (multipath) and operate data and recover them to
original signals. 802.11g/b/g uses a single antenna or SISO (Single Input Output).
Passphrase
It is used instead of password to mean that the password should long enough.
