Design a wireless solution

Recent advances in the field of wireless communication and networking technologies have led to

new advancements that can be integrated into human, industrial, medical frameworks and many

other areas. The application of wireless network technologies in the field of medicine is playing a

vital role in providing active medical care. In recent years, people suffering from chronic diseases

have to wait in a long queue and have to be hospitalized for a long time. They have to visit the

hospital frequently, which may not be possible in emergency situations. As a result, efforts are

taken to avoid the longer hospital stays so that the patients can feel relaxed at home.

a) Design a wireless solution for supporting the above application using Wireless Local Area

Network (WLAN) technology. Design should include the conceptual WLAN architecture

based on IEEE802.11 where a hospital can monitor and receive data from patients living

within 3km radius. Explain and justify your answer with an appropriate diagram.

b) Identify and explain a particular security attack that could breach patients’ personal data,

explain how the attack could take place considering the above scenario.

c) What prevention technique would you adopt in order to mitigate the effect of your choice

of attack?
