Introduction: Now-a-days we are living in a technical era where almost all electrical products are functioning wirelessly. There are different types of protocol used for wireless communication. In this paper I am going describe about some wireless protocols use all over the world. At first we have to know what protocol is. And why it is important for communication pattern. Then I tell about drawbacks and finally there will be my assumption about different protocols.

Description: A protocol is a set of rules or agreed upon guidelines for communication. When communicating it is important to agree on how to do so. If one party speaks French and one German the communications will most likely fail. If they both agree on a single language communications will work. For this reason there must have some rules and policies. In brief those are called protocols. On the Internet the set of communications protocols used is called TCP/IP. TCP/IP is actually a collection of various protocols that each has their own special function or purpose. These protocols have been established by international standards bodies and are used in almost all platforms and around the globe to ensure that all devices on the Internet can communicate successfully.

IEEE 802.11 is a set of standards for implementing wireless local area network (WLAN) computer communication in the 2.4, 3.6, 5 and 60 GHz frequency bands. They are created and maintained by the IEEE LAN/MAN Standards Committee (IEEE 802). The base version of the standard was released in 1997 and has had subsequent amendments. These standards provide the basis for wireless network products using the Wi-Fi brand.

The most prevalent is 802.11b. Equipment using 802.11b is comparatively inexpensive. The 802.11b wireless communication standard operates in the unregulated 2.4 GHz frequency range. Unfortunately, so do many other devices such as cordless phones and baby monitors which

    Image a business environment without networking wires connecting to every device. How would information travel to their destination? Well, there is an emerging technology that is here and can transmit packets wirelessly, but it is not being fully utilized in the business world like it could be. That technology is called Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi does not stand for anything nor is it an acronym. The Wi-Fi Alliance defines Wi-Fi as any “wireless local area network (WLAN) products that are based on the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers’ (IEEE) 802.11 standards”. (Wi-Fi) There are several components that make up Wi-Fi, so naming a single inventor would be difficult. Let's take a look at the history of the 802.11 standard (the radio frequency)…

    The Internet Protocol (IP) sits in the middle of the five-layer TCP/IP model. IT provides service to the layers above it and receives services from the layers below it. Almost every computing device on the planet communicates in some way, and most of those use IP. IP exists as an Internet standard protocol, also called ipv4, although it is mostly just referred to as IP. IP was created in the 1970s, but did not reach standard status as the IPv4 RFC until the 1980s.…
