“…Equation (1) gives a reasonable model for estimating mean path loss over distance. For more accurate results, a propagation modeling tool can be used [14]. The maximum output power for indoor-only applications is mW dBm in the lower 200 MHz of the European radio local area network (RLAN) spectrum designation [9].…”

Abstract-At present, wireless local area networks (WLANs) such as HiperLAN2 and 802.11a are being developed and deployed around the world. In this letter, the use of sectorized antennas is considered as a means to improve the physical layer performance of WLANs. Results demonstrate that throughput and range can be enhanced and/or the transmit power can be reduced. However, these benefits are achieved with a small increase in multiple access protocol overhead. Simulations are performed using measured wideband channels in the 5-GHz band. In cases where the channel exhibits strong Rician characteristics, gains as high as 13 dB are demonstrated. These benefits substantially outweigh the associated medium access control overhead.Index Terms-HIPERLAN2, IEEE 802.11, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), smart antennas, wireless local area networks (WLANs).
