| Summary: | The growth and expansion of modern society rely heavily upon well-functioning data communication over the internet. This phenomenon is seen at the company Net Insight where the need for transferring a large amount of data in the form of media over the internet in an effective manner is a high priority. At the moment most internet traffic in the modern world is done by the use of the internet protocol TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) instead of the simpler protocol UDP (User Datagram Protocol). Although TCP works in an excellent manner for most kinds of data communication it seems that this might not always be the case, so the use of UDP might be the better option in some occurrences. It is therefore of high interest at Net Insight to see how different types of wireless networks behave under different network circumstances when data is sent in different ways through the use of UDP. Thereby this report focuses on the measurement and analysis of how different wireless networks, specifically 4G, 5.0 GHz and 2.4 GHz WLAN networks, behaves when exposed to varied network environments where data is transmitted by the use of UDP in different ways. To perform a network-analysis data is collected, processed, and then analyzed. This network-analysis resulted in many conclusions regarding network behavior and performance for the different wireless networks.
