The initial component in the creation of the wireless medium. This component's job is to begin the RF communication.
Transmitter
The transmitter takes the data provided and modifies the AC signal by using a ____________ technique to encode the data into the signal.
Modulation
The transmitter is responsible for determining the original transmission amplitude, or what is more commonly referred to as the _______ _______.
power level
When this is connected to the transmitter, it collects the AC signal that it receives from the transmitter and directs, or radiates, the RF waves away form it in a pattern specific to its type.
antenna
The ________ converts the AC signal to bits and bytes.
receiver
The term used to describe a signal that is radiated equally in all directions. The sun is one of the best examples of this term as it generates equal amounts of energy in all directions.
isotropic radiator
The final component in the wireless medium. This takes the carrier signal that is taken or given from the antenna and translates the modulated signals into 1s and 0s.
A device that intentionally generates and emits radio frequency energy by radiation or induction. A device that is specifically designed to generate RF.
Intentional Radiator (IR)
The highest RF signal strength that is transmitted from a particular antenna.
Equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP)
The transmit power of most indoor WLAN radios varies in range between _______ and _______.
1 mW; 100 mW
