Question 1

Describe the difference between directed transmission and diffused transmission with respect to infrared transmissions.

Accepted Answer

A directed transmission requires that the emitter and detector be directly aimed at one another in a line of sight (LoS) path. A diffused transmission relies on reflected light. The emitters on diffused transmissions have a wide-focused beam instead of a narrow beam and are pointed at the room's ceiling, which serves as the reflection point.

Question 2

A)  Wireless Zero Configuration 
B)  WLAN AutoConfig 
C)  MS WNIC Config 
D)  AutoNIC Configuration 
A)  Wireless Zero Configuration 
B)  WLAN AutoConfig 
C)  MS WNIC Config 
D)  AutoNIC Configuration B

Question 3

Describe the Microsoft Windows 7 feature referred to as the wireless Hosted Network.

Accepted Answer

This feature has two parts: the virtualization of the physical wireless NIC into multiple virtual wireless NICs (called Virtual WiFi) and a software-based wireless access point (SoftAP) that uses a designated virtual wireless NIC. The wireless Hosted Network allows users to extend the functionality of their portable laptop computer. For example, a user could set up her computer to create a wireless network so that other users can quickly share documents wirelessly between multiple computers.Another function allows a laptop's network connection to be shared by other computers and devices. For example, a user could connect her computer to the Internet and then turn her computer into an AP that shares the Internet connection with other wireless laptop devices, much like a hardware AP.
