CECS 474 Computer Network Interoperability
October 2012
Circle T or F for each of the following true or false questions (2 points each):
1. T or F The IEEE 802.3 protocol is the most widely used wireless LAN standard.
2. T or F The Hidden Node problem in WIFI networks occurs when not all stations can hear all
transmissions.
3. T or F The IEEE 802.11 protocol was originally designed to operate over three different types of
physical media.
4. T or F If the Exposed Node problem is solved, the throughput of an ad hoc wireless network may
increase.
5. T or F In CSMA/CA some kinds of collisions are possible; but collisions of data packets can not
occur.
6. T or F If your IEEE 802.11 enabled laptop boots and initiates contact with nearby access points, it is
using passive scanning.
7. T or F The format of IEEE 802.11 frames includes four address fields.
8. T or F WiMax is proposed as backhaul network and a an alternative to local access networks.
9. T or F In cell networks, perfect cell coverage occurs if each cell in a wireless network is a square.
10. T or F The latest generation of Cellular Technologies to be deployed is 4G.
11. T or F Bluetooth can be used to create a Personal Area Network (PAN).
12. T or F Spread Spectrum is used in IEEE 802.11 Wireless networks to help prevent electromagnetic
interference from other devices from affecting transmissions.
13. T or F Nyquist’s Sampling Theorem says that, when sampling an analog signal, the sample rate must
be at least three times as fast as the highest frequency.
14. T or F In “lossy” data compression, all information is retained in the compressed version.
15. T or F JPEG data compression uses “lossy” compression.
Select the best answer for the following multiple choice question (2 points):
16. Recall the reservation process of the 802.11 CSMA/CA protocol. Select the letter that corresponds to the
proper order of the commands that are sent back and forth from computer to basestation assuming no
errors:
(a) RTS -> CTS -> DATA-> CTS.
(b) CTS -> RTS -> DATA-> ACK.
(c) RTS -> CTS -> DATA-> ACK.
(d) TS -> CTS -> DATA-> CTS.
(e) CTS -> RTS -> DATA-> CTS.
