<P> Infrastructure network access points send beacons at a defined interval , which is often set to a default 100ms . In the case of an ad hoc network where there are no access points , a peer station is responsible for sending the beacon . After an ad hoc station receives a beacon frame from a peer , it waits a random amount of time . After that random timeout has elapsed , it will send a beacon frame unless another station has already sent one . In this way , the responsibility of sending beacon frames is rotated amongst all the peers in the ad hoc network , while ensuring that beacons will always be sent . </P>
