Wi-Fi Amplifier

To whom it may concern:

I am working on a technical project at Arizona State University where I will need to construct a wi-fi frequency amplifier. I just need to know the essential materials and pieces I would need to make a simple wi-fi amplifier. Please let me know if you can help in anyway as I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you!

    Is this for a receiver or transmitter?  Do you need to add WiFi connectivity to something or do you need to boost the power of an existing WiFi device? 

    Can you provide more details?  What frequency, gain, bandwidth, etc.

    We are looking to boost the power of a typical existing home WiFi Device. Just like a typical netgear WiFi booster you can buy in the store. We can to create something similar, but gaining the experience and knowledge by doing it ourselves.

    I hope this helped.

    I am not familiar with the WiFi specifications.  If you can give me some detailed specifications about what you want I can maybe recommend an amplifier.  Most of the high speed product line is not targeted at RF transmit applicaions. 

    We do have a wireless group that may be able to help.

    You may also have luck using discreet RF FETS or BJT transistors.

    There are also FCC regulations that you will need to comply with.  I do not have those specifications, but it may be in Part 15.

    Hey Jordan,

    You should be able to search for schematics for bidirectional amplifiers, however, you need to make sure the power you are planning to transmit is within the FCC rules and regulation. You also simply use a more directional antenna.
