Análisis y diseño de una red WLAN para dar cobertura de internet en el área de la cancha de futbol de la UCSG.

Abstract

In the present work a technical analysis was carried out for the design of a WLAN network, which allows to provide coverage and connectivity to the internet to the area of the UCSG soccer field. The proposal of the network was established with the purpose of its possible implementation, modification or expansion in the future, due to changes that are made in the infrastructure of the place. This document consists of four chapters: Chapter 1, consists of the introduction, description of the problem and objectives to be covered in the development of the following chapters, as well as the research methodology and hypothesis. Chapter 2, includes the Theoretical Foundation, about the electromagnetic spectrum, describing the frequency bands, propagation media and access techniques. Then we focused on wireless communications, their classification, scope and a special focus on wireless local area networks, where the IEEE 802.11 Standard was studied in its different variations, as well as its physical and access layers, as well as a revision to the Strengths and weaknesses of WLAN networks. Chapter 3 is the contributions of the student, where it was proposed to cover each of the specific objectives established in Chapter 1, here the design of the network was carried out, the simulation of the equipment in operation with different measurement values, and a budget estimated equipment and materials necessary for a possible implementation.
