Briefly describe the 802.11g PHY layer with respect to its multiplexing scheme.

What will be an ideal response?


The PHY layer for 802.11g introduced a transmission technology called orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) to the 802.11 standard. Instead of serializing the data and modulating bits onto a single carrier using DSSS or CCK as in 802.11 or 802.11b, respectively, OFDM divides 20 MHz of bandwidth in each of the three usable channels in the ISM band into 52 subcarriers and modulates the bits of data onto 48 of them, then transmits multiple bits and multiple copies of the same data at the same time at a slower data rate than 802.11 or 802.11b.
