— The IEEE 802.11e standard supports a Direct-Link Setup (DLS) mechanism optionally to improve the throughput. Using this mechanism, IEEE 802.11e stations in proximity can direct...
In wireless LAN technology, access point selection at each station is a critical problem in order to obtain satisfactory throughputs. The current protocol for access point selecti...
Opportunistic user access scheduling enhances the capacity of wireless networks by exploiting the multi user diversity. When frame aggregation is used, opportunistic schemes are no...
—In multi-rate wireless LANs, throughput-based fair bandwidth allocation can lead to drastically reduced aggregate throughput. To balance aggregate throughput while serving users...
