Abstract

This chapter gives an overview over several existing wireless network standards with their main usage, used frequency band, modulation, transfer speed as well as features and limitations, based on their data sheets. The main intention of this chapter is an assistance to choose the best fitting protocol for a given application. Therefore some typical scenarios for applications are described and after a preselection based on the main application the wireless network protocols are compared to find the best protocol for each scenario.
