There are number of technology available to transfer data in wireless manner like Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, infrared, GPS and many more. Some wireless network has relatively small range like Bluetooth and infrared, some has large range like Wi-Fi and some has huge range like GPS system. As the current technology converging to wireless network, its security is also very huge concern for us. As the range of coverage for any wireless system increase, the technology involve in it also become complicated to function it properly. In other words technology involve for smooth transfer of data is directly proportional to its range.
