Abstract
There are technical, economic and human tradeoff factors in determining the degree to which system functions (including medium access method) are distributed between stations and common equipment in large scale wireless LAN systems. Motivations, specific use and benefits of particular centralized functions are described in the context of the application and service requirements of IEEE P802.11. It is concluded that a shared common control function is essential in large scale, high capacity systems with bandwidth efficiency
