Abstract :
An international standard for wireless LAN, IEEE 802.11, has been developed. However, time bounded services, roaming, are not well defined or not even defined. We propose methods to implement these two critical issues with minimum change of IEEE 802.11. Our simulations demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed methods
