High Performance Radio Local Access Network; a wireless local area network being standardized by ETSI (also HIPERLAN2).
A wireless LAN protocol developed by ETSI (European Telecommunications Standards Institute) akin to 802.11. There are two types of HiperLAN, both operating in the 5GHz band. HiperLAN/1 provides data-rates up to 20 Mbps, and HiperLAN/2 data-rates up to 54 Mbps.
European wireless LAN standard at 24 Mbps in the 5GHz band. Similar to Ethernet but with quality of service (QoS).
High PErformance Radio Local Area Network, a European alternative for the IEEE 802.11 standards
high performance radio local area network. Developed by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute, Set of WLAN communication standards used chiefly in European countries.
High Performance radio Local Area Network, an ESTI standard EN 300 652 for high speed data communications at 20Mbit/s in the 5GHz range, either between portable devices or as an extension of a wired network infrastructure. There is a development to produce HIPERLAN2, which can be used for 3G mobile phone core networks as well as 54Mbit/s data networks in the 5GHz radio range. See also 802.11, Wireless Local Area Network.
HIPERLAN (HIgh PErformance Radio LAN) is a Wireless LAN standard. It is a European alternative for the IEEE 802.11 standards (the IEEE is an American organization). It is defined by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI).
