1. Wi-Fi is undependable, signal strength erratic

2. Signals don’t reach, coverage is spotty

3. Wireless LAN systems are costly, cumbersome and complex

4. Performance is inconsistent

What’s the Problem(s)?

�� Spatial MultiplexingSpatial Multiplexing uses multiple antennas/radios to simultaneously transmit different data streams

� Significantly improves performance and also improves reach/reliability due to antenna diversity

�� 40Mhz Channel40Mhz Channel combines 2x 20Mhz channels

� By having a wider data carrier frequency available, performance can be improved by ~2x

�� Frame AggregationFrame Aggregation of data into ‘jumbo’ frames to improve efficiency

�� Block AcknowledgementBlock Acknowledgement of a group of packets rather than individual packets to reduce overhead

�� Variable Guard IntervalVariable Guard Interval reduces the Inter Packet Gap

� Improves performance by ~10%
