Wireless Access networks are widely used. There are wireless shadows in schools and cities. Here we will mainly introduce the speed of wireless access networks. How fast is the speed of Wireless Access networks? From 2 M of 802.11 to 802.11 M of 108g +, the speed of wireless access network equipment has been greatly improved in recent years, and it is almost the same as that of ordinary household 10/100 Mbps networks. However, we all know that, whether it is 11 Mbps of 802.11b, 54 Mbps of 802.11g, or 802.11 Mbps of 108g +, It is a theoretical speed, and the actual transmission speed will definitely not reach this point, in a normal environment, how fast is the actual speed of a brick wall or a room? In other words, how fast can a wireless access network test speed be achieved without any wireless interference? Next, let's take a look at it.
802.11b
The maximum theoretical speed of 802.11b is 11 Mbps. The WLAN transmission speed is generally between 3 and 6 Mbps, and is converted to MB (1 MB = 8 Mb), that is, the transmission speed is about KB per second. It takes about two minutes to three minutes to transmit a MB file at a speed of KB (different from the wired network, because there is interference uncertainty in the wireless access network transmission, so the time cannot be accurate ). It takes at least 25 minutes to transfer a 1 GB file. For games with more than several gigabytes of video files, HD video files, or hard disk WLAN copies with dozens of gigabytes of hard drives, unless you are patient or impatient, so 802.11b, like a 10 m wired network, is not applicable to copying large-capacity Local Area Network files.
802.11 GB
Because 802.11a is a mainstream non-market consumer, we will not introduce it here. The actual transmission speed can be referred to the 802.11g standard. The theoretical maximum speed of 802.11g is 54 Mbps. The WLAN transmission speed is generally between 16 and 30 Mbps, which is converted to MB, that is, the transmission speed is about 2 mb-4mb per second. The median value is 3 MB. It takes about 35 seconds to transfer a MB file. It takes at least 4 minutes to transfer a 1 GB file. This speed is sufficient for General Lan applications.
802.11 GB +
The theoretical maximum speed of 802.11g + is 108 Mbps, And the WLAN transmission speed is generally between 24-50 Mbps, which is converted to MB, that is, the transmission speed is about 3 mb-6mb per second. The median value is 4.5 MB. It takes about 25 seconds to transfer a MB file. To transfer a 1 GB file, it takes at least two minutes and a half. The speed is close to Mbps, and more than enough for most WLAN applications. From the above introduction, we can see that users who usually use wireless LAN do not actually feel such a fast speed. In terms of basic knowledge, "the actual transmission speed of a wireless LAN is less than half of the maximum transmission speed ".
Of course, the above is just the speed we measure in a better state. The real transmission speed of the Wireless Access Network is subject to various obstacles such as distance and wall. Other wireless signals, such as mobile phones and microwave ovens, interfere with the speed; encryption and non-encryption have great impacts. When you stay away from the access point, the signal will become weaker and the speed will also decrease. In addition, when others join the network, the bandwidth is shared. Wireless network interfaces are divided into two types: GPRS and CDMA. The actual speed of GPRS is basically the same as that of the 56Kbps Modem. The actual speed of CDMA is 153.6 Kbps, which is about four times that of the home telephone line, the wireless network adapter is also transmitted through the wireless access network, so its speed will also be affected by various obstacles such as walls; other wireless signals such as mobile phones, microwave ovens, and so on.
Summary:
We can see that the claimed wireless access network device is the maximum theoretical value, but it still fails to meet this standard in actual application. Generally, a discount is required, that is to say, the actual speed is only half of the declared speed. In an ideal situation, if there is still a loss if it is affected, the specific speed depends on the actual application environment.
