23. Who and when was WiFi hotspots first proposed.
24. This non-profit organization is dedicated in
certifying the interoperability of WiMAX products.
ECE 525E MIDTERM QUIZ#3C
25. The first global organization composed exclusively
of owners of WiMAX spectrum with [plans to
deploy WIMAX technology.
26. This is used to connect a group of WiFi enabled
devices to an adjacent wired network.
27. This term is used to describe the received signal
fidelity gain at the cost of bandwidth.
28. The type of modulation used in DSSS.
29. The type of modulation used in FHSS.
30. In FHSS, this is the rate at which hopping takes
place.

II. Based from the following advantages and

disadvantages, identify the type of spread spectrum

1. It requires a long acquisition time due to long

PN codes.
2. It does not require error correction.
3. It has the best noise and anti jam performance.
4. It provides the greatest amount of spreading.
5. It is the most difficult to intercept.
6. Near-far problem can be avoided in a
coordinated system.
7. It requires a complex frequency synthesizer in
order to generate hops.
8. It has high bandwidth efficiency.
9. It fights well against multi-path effect.
10. It is not as much affected by the near-far
problem as DSSS is.
11. Its implementation is simpler than that of
FHSS.
12. It requires large bandwidth channel with
relatively small phase distortions.
13. It can be arranged to avoid portions of the
spectrum.
14. It has a relatively short acquisition time
because the chip rate is considerably less.
15. It requires error correction like FHSS.
