To understand the importance of communication protocols, it’s necessary to understand what communication protocols are, and there purpose. A communication protocol is a formal description of various digital message formats and rules that are required to permit the exchange of messages in or between computing systems. Communications protocols are responsible for authentication, error correction and detection, and signaling. They also describe the syntax, synchronization and semantics of digital and analog communications. Communications protocols are implemented in software and hardware. There are a large number of communications protocols used everywhere in digital and analog communications. Computer networks are very dependent on protocols, they cannot exist without them. Patton-Fuller Community Hospital’s upgraded IT structure reflects a need to convert the administration network to Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), install Voice Over Internet
Protocol (VOIP) in the hospital, and design a high speed Wide Area Network (WAN). Let us realize the need for quick and secure access to information by all the various departments, the reduction in overhead cost to run physical cables throughout the hospital, and most important the need for medical doctors to have immediate access to important information regardless of data type. Of absolute imperative is the need for the IEEE 802.11(ad) protocols to be included.
This showcases support for all the prior members of the 802.11 family, seamless switching between 2.4 and 60GHZ bands, a huge increase in the channel width up to 2160 MHz, improved functionality of mobile devices, impressive expansion in working range, and advanced security features. According to Techtagets.com, networks using 802.11ad will operate in the 60-GHz band using orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing. The
