Adjacent overlapping and non-overlapping channels
. . . .


Adjacent overlapping and non-overlapping

  • The 802.11-2012 standard loosely defines an adjacent channel as any channel with nonoverlapping frequencies for the DSSS and HR-DSSS PHYs.
  • With ERP and OFDM PHYs, the standard loosely defines an adjacent channel as the first channel with a nonoverlapping frequency space.

Adjacent overlapping channels

  • Depending on the PHY spectral mask, adjacent overlapping channels are classed based on having less than the required amount of seperation in MHz between the center frequencies.

Adjacent non-overlapping channels

  • Depending on the PHY spectral mask, adjacent-non overlapping channels are classed based on having more than the required amount of seperation in MHz between the center frequencies
