Infrastructure – An integrated wireless and wired LAN is called
an Infrastructure configuration.
Roaming – A wireless LAN mobile user moves around an ESS and
maintains a continuous connection to the Infrastructure network.

not be aware of each other. RTS/CTS mechanism can solve this
"Hidden Node Problem." If the packet size is smaller than the
preset RTS Threshold size, the RTS/CTS mechanism will NOT be
