ABSTRACT
The incredible growth of WLANs and the overwhelming
acceptance of VoIP have merged to form the foundation for
Voice over Wireless LAN (VoWLAN), sometimes
referred to as Voice over Wireless Fidelity (VoWiFi).
The use of VoIP, the wired Internet Protocol predecessor
to VoWiFi, freed us from our land-based telephones. VoIP
technology provided us with a cost-effective alternative to
circuit-switched voice networks, otherwise known as the
public switched telephone network (PSTN). Designing an
overall integration strategy built around voice and data
exchange via the Internet led to an increased use of remote
connectivity both at work and at home.
