Abstract

In this paper, performance analysis physical layer wireless local area network. The physical layer is the most important layer in wireless network, high speed data transmission depend only physical layer. Physical layer have different technique for data transmission like DSSS, FHSS, CDMA, OFDM using different modulation technique, physical layer also have large number of IEEE standard for PAN, WLAN, MAN. In this paper, we studied the inherent limitations of wireless local area network, especially in the physical layer IEEE 802.11 standard. In this paper examines the performance of the IEEE 802.11a standard for different combinations of sub-carrier modulation type and code rate and determines the signal-to-noise ratio required to obtain a probability of bit error. On the other hand, the results also show significant coding gain when applying convolutional coding with Viterbi decoding.
