    a. Time
    b. Global
    c. Clock
    d. Low power
    2. Which sensor nodes are distributed randomly
    a. Static
    b. Movable
    c. Both a and c
    d. Neither of the above
    3. What is the access point (AP) in a wireless LAN?
    a) device that allows wireless devices to connect to a wired network
    b) wireless devices itself
    c) both device that allows wireless devices to connect to a wired network and wireless devices
    itself
    d) all the nodes in the network
    View Answer
    Answer: a
    Explanation: Access point in a wireless network is any device that will allow the wireless devices
    to a wired network. A router is the best example of an Access Point.
    4. In wireless ad-hoc network _________
    a) access point is not required
    b) access point is must
    c) nodes are not required
    d) all nodes are access points
    View Answer Answer: a
    Explanation: An ad-hoc wireless network is a decentralized kind of a wireless network. An access
    one. Hence it is not required.
    5. In wireless distribution system __________
    a) multiple access point are inter-connected with each other
    b) there is no access point
    c) only one access point exists
    d) access points are not required
    View Answer: a
    Explanation: A Wireless Distribution System allows the connection of multiple access points
    together. It is used to expand a wireless network to a larger network.
    6. A wireless network interface controller can work in _______
    a) infrastructure mode
    b) ad-hoc mode
    c) both infrastructure mode and ad-hoc mode
    d) WDS mode
    View Answer: c
    Explanation: A wireless network interface controller works on the physical layer and the data
    link layer of the OSI model. Infrastructure mode WNIC needs access point but in ad-hoc mode
    access point is not required.
    7. In wireless network an extended service set is a set of ________
    a) connected basic service sets
    b) all stations
    c) all access points
    d) connected access points
    View Answer: a
    Explanation: The extended service set is a part of the IEEE 802.11 WLAN architecture and is used
    to expand the range of the basic service set by allowing connection of multiple basic service
    sets.
    8. Mostly ________ is used in wireless LAN.
    a) time division multiplexing
    b) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing
    c) space division multiplexing
    d) channel division multiplexing
    View Answer: b
    Explanation: In orthogonal frequency division multiplexing, digital data is encoded on multiple
    carrier frequencies. It is also used in digital television and audio broadcasting in addition to
    Wireless LANs.
    9. Which one of the following event is not possible in wireless LAN?
    a) collision detection
    b) acknowledgement of data frames
    c) multi-mode data transmission
    d) connection to wired networks
    View Answer: a
    Explanation: Collision detection is not possible in wireless LAN with no extensions. Collision
    detection techniques for multiple access like CSMA/CD are used to detect collisions in Wireless
    LANs.
    10. What is Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)?
    a) security algorithm for ethernet
    b) security algorithm for wireless networks
    c) security algorithm for usb communication
    d) security algorithm for emails

    confidentiality comparable to that of traditional wired networks. It was introduced in 1997.
    11. In cryptography, what is cipher?
    a) algorithm for performing encryption and decryption
    b) encrypted message
    c) both algorithm for performing encryption and decryption and encrypted message
