Abstract
The use of WLAN technology specially 802.11 b and g has seen huge subscriber growth in a relatively short time period due to low cost and ease of installation of WLAN hardware. These technologies provide multiple data rates ranging from 1 to 54 Mbps depending on modulation used in physical layer. This paper presents the performance of 802.11b and g under different data rates in mobile IPv4 environment. OPNET is used in the study as the network simulator. The performance metrics used in this wort is data traffic received by a WLAN station roaming amongst Access Point(AP) of different ESSs. It is found that much data packets are lost during handover between mobile agents. The traffic received by the roaming station varies based on the data rates provided by two different WLAN technologies.
