Multi-Hop Routing Cooperative Communication for Improving Throughput in IEEE 802.11x Wireless LAN

چکیده
In this paper, we propose cooperative communication scheme using multiple relays to improve the throughput of IEEE 802.11x wireless LAN. The proposed scheme performs cooperative communication with a terminal supporting a high data rate in order to solve the problem that a total network throughput is greatly reduced when a terminal supporting a low data rate occupies a channel. Also, the multi-hop routing is performed to optimize the performance of cooperative communication. According to the simulation results, the proposed cooperative communication scheme improves the reduction rate of the throughput even if the number of terminals supporting a low data rate increases in the entire network.
