Default a question about 802.11b

Greetings and sorry for my lack of knowledge on the subject.
does anyone know of a website for some circuity information for the 802....
I am not interested in stealing ideas I just would like to know how the got
onto 2.4 ghz.

Larry,

I would suggest that it is MUCH more practical and economical to buy
802.11b or 802.11b/g equipment ...

The 802.11 standards are HUGE and VERY complicated ... an any
practical implementation requires custom ASICs ... not a home-brew
project in any sense.

(I work for one of the world leaders in 802.11 ICs and modules, but
I am telling you straight, not trying to simply sell another NIC card ...)

73,
Carl - wk3c

p.s. If you'd like to browse the standards, they should be available
for free as .pdf downloads at http://standards.ieee.org/getieee802/

H Carl
Actually my curiosity is not that I want to build one but more that I would
like to know how they got the signal onto 2.4 ghz. I am more interested in
the rf transmitter and receiver portions than in what they are using it for.

Most, if not all, modern chipsets that for 802.11b use direct conversion
to I and Q channels ... the major signal procesing is done at baseband.

For simpler, more general RF/IF needs, you might check out, for example,
the websites of
RF Microdevices http://www.rfmd.com
and
Maxim http://www.maxim-ic.com/
