Abstract

The field of communications and computer networks changes rapidly with the development of various technologies and the progress of electronic manufacturing and integration. The ubiquitous availability of the Internet has changed the way of communication among people. Nowadays, Internet-based applications such as email, instant messaging, and social networks are used massively on daily basis. Therefore, ubiquitous Internet connectivity is a major necessity. For this, wireless communication which supports seamless connectivity without the necessity of cables is indispensable.
