Project overview
1.1 Problem statement and solution:
In this project, we will design and implement a wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) to cover all the premises of
the high institute of engineering at El-shorouk Academy (high institute of engineering). To do this
we studied the structure of wireless LAN and the difficulties of wireless transmission. We studied
the network design methodology which contain the following steps:

Planning

Design

Implementation

Operation

optimization

(PDIOO) methodology represents a network lifecycle-from the time of planning until the time the
network is ready for design… The five distinct but interrelated stages in the PDIOO lifecycle.

The design procedure started with selecting the appropriate available access points (AP) which
was TP-link(TL-WR840N) then we measured coverage (practically) using InSSider package
software (indoor & outdoor)

A site survey was made to determine the suitable location for ace point installation it was found
that the buildings of el shorouk academy are homogenous such as computer science building

Which give us opportunity to repeat the coverage results all over the premises the final design
was found to be

Different applications of this network were implemented

As a proof of concept it included the following :

Chat

Voip

Video conference

Online testing
