Abstract

RESUMEN ANALITICO

Este artículo presenta el estado del arte relacionado con el estándar IEEE802.11 para la conectividad de zonas rurales, obtenido a partir de la revisión de bibliografía y literatura técnica internacional. En primer lugar, se exponen, desde el enfoque de varios autores, los diferentes mecanismos de control de acceso al medio que pueden operar en la capa física establecida dentro del estándar y que permiten el despliegue de redes de largo alcance; posteriormente, se realiza el análisis de cada capa MAC con las principales características de desempeño para el despliegue de redes de áreas extensas. Se describe además el desempeño de la capa física y los límites de distancia posibles para los enlaces de radio considerando la máxima potencia isotrópica radiada equivalente en la banda ISM y el nivel de señal recibida; por último se presentan de manera general los trabajos realizados por algunos de los principales grupos de investigación a nivel internacional relacionados con el tema de desarrollo de redes inalámbricas para emplazamientos rurales en países en desarrollo así como algunas de sus experiencias más importantes.

STATE OF THE ART OF IEEE802.11 FOR RURAL CONNECTIVITY

 

ANALYTICAL SUMMARY

This article presents the state of the art relating to the IEEE802.11 standard for connectivity in rural areas, obtained from a review of international literature and technical literature. First, set out from the focus of several authors and different mechanisms for medium access control that can operate at the physical layer provided within the standard and allow the deployment of long-range networks. Subsequently, the analysis is performed in MAC layer of the main features of performance for the deployment of wide area networks. It also describes the physical layer performance and potential distance limits for radio links considering the maximum equivalent isotropic radiate power in the ISM band and the received signal level. Finally are generally the work of some of the leading research groups on the topic of developing wireless networks for rural locations in developing countries and some of their most important experiences.
