OUTLINEOUTLINE
Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) is very popular for last mile access.
Various WLAN standards: IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n WLAN operate in Line-of-Sight (LOS) and
indoor environment and subjected to multipath fading and signal blockage ~ within 100 – 300 meters with different data rates.
High gain antenna enable WLAN to increase their range and accommodate higher data rate
CANTENNA is a directional waveguide antenna for long-range wireless LAN used to increase the range of existing wireless network connection.
INTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTION
•Among problem encounter using typical low gain WLAN antenna:
limited distance accessWeak signal reception and subject to the interferenceData packet loss when surfing the internet
at long range.• High gain antenna (Cantenna)
Provide a method to extend the wireless coverage Provide a method to extend the wireless coverage distance ~ up to 1 kmdistance ~ up to 1 kmMore practical to use directional antenna than More practical to use directional antenna than omidirectional antennaomidirectional antennaCheaper prizeCheaper prizeVery practical to develop own CantennaVery practical to develop own Cantenna
