The 2.4 GHz WRT-54G wireless routers were modified to operated in the Amateur Radio allocation of that SHF band. With Amateur Radio a high power RF amplifier and Yagi antennas can be used to improve performance and range.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/big><\/small><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\" align=\"left\"><small><big><span style=\"font-family: Arial;font-size: medium\"><span style=\"color: #001a00;font-family: Arial\"><span style=\"color: #000000\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-457 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.temple.edu\/tuarc\/files\/2016\/11\/BBHM1.jpg\" alt=\"bbhm1\" width=\"611\" height=\"201\" \/><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/big><\/small><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\" align=\"left\"><small><big><span style=\"font-family: Arial;font-size: medium\"><span style=\"color: #001a00;font-family: Arial\"><span style=\"color: #000000\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-458 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.temple.edu\/tuarc\/files\/2016\/11\/BBHM2.jpg\" alt=\"bbhm2\" width=\"519\" height=\"329\" \/>The final Senior Design project\u00a0<span style=\"color: #9f1a00\"><a style=\"color: #9f1a00\" href=\"https:\/\/sites.temple.edu\/tuarc\/files\/2017\/02\/Broadband-Hamnet-Report.pdf\">Broadband-Hamnet Report<\/a>\u00a0<span style=\"color: #000000\">can be obtained.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/big><\/small><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Broadband-Hamnet (BBHM) is the implementation of ad-hoc wireless\u00a0data\u00a0networks over Amateur Radio frequencies using commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) such as IEEE 802.11 access points.
