Introduction to IEEE 802 protocol standards (1)

The use of wireless networks has become commonplace. Are you clear about the standards under the IEEE 802 protocol? Now let's make a summary here. First, let's take a look at the basic meaning of this Protocol. The most common standard for wireless LAN is the IEEE-defined industrial standard for wireless network communication-the series. Before getting started, let's first understand what is IEEE?

IEEE, short for the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, was merged by AIEE and IRE in January 1, 1963, it is the largest professional society in the United States and one of the largest professional technical organizations in the world. It has 175 members from 0.36 million countries.

At present, IEEE standards defined in the industry have a great impact. IEEE is positioned in "science and education, and is directly oriented to the organization of research on electronic and electrical engineering, communication, computer engineering, computer science theories and principles, as well as the art and science of related engineering branches ". To achieve this goal, IEEE undertakes the roles of multiple scientific journals and conference organizers. It is also a broad industrial standard developer.

IEEE has developed 30% of the world's literature in the field of electronics, electrical, and computer science. In addition, it has developed more than 900 existing industrial standards. It also initiates or cooperates to hold more than 300 international technical meetings each year. IEEE is composed of 37 associations and also organizes specialized technical fields. Each year, local organizations hold more than 300 regular meetings. IEEE publishes a wide range of peer review journals and is the main international standard institution (900 current standards and 700 R & D medium standards ).
