If the AP is working in the infrastructure mode, then the working state of the AP at this time is full- duplex mode.

• ATrue
• BFalse

• B

Explanation

Option B (False) is correct because an AP operating in infrastructure mode uses wireless radio frequency channels, which are a shared medium - only one device can transmit at a time on a given channel. This constraint means the AP operates in half-duplex mode, where communication alternates between sending and receiving rather than occurring simultaneously. Option A is wrong because full-duplex requires simultaneous two-way transmission, which standard 802.11 Wi-Fi cannot achieve since the AP and its associated clients all share the same radio channel using CSMA/CA to avoid collisions. A helpful way to remember this: think of a walkie-talkie (half-duplex) versus a telephone (full-duplex) - Wi-Fi behaves like the walkie-talkie because everyone on the same channel must take turns, regardless of whether the AP is in infrastructure or any other mode.
