Abstract: | In this paper, we analytically study the dense basic service set network transmission problems in very high throughput (VHT, namely IEEE 802.11ac) wireless local area networks (WLANs) due to nervous bandwidth resources. Our contributions are threefold as follows. Firstly, we derive the closed-form expressions of throughput gains for primary channel establishment from multi-band selection using the optimal skipping rule, which balances the throughput gain from finding a good quality band with the overhead of measuring multiple bands. Secondly, in order to satisfy the quality of service of overlapping BSS users, we design a space interference avoidance mechanism, which can improve the system throughput for the whole dense WLANs. Thirdly, in order to further improve the transmission performance of dense BSS networks, we propose an unequal bandwidth transmission mechanism based on the VHT WLANs, which can not only clear the redundant network allocation vector duration timely but also use the limited bandwidth efficiently. The proposed protocols and mechanisms exploit both time and frequency diversity sufficiently, and are shown to result in typical throughput gains compared with the traditional IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol. |
