Frame aggregation in fibre-wireless (FiWi) broadband access networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
MAC enhancements of emerging high-throughput WLANs are considered and a novel FiWi network architecture is introduced that integrates next-generation WLAN-based WMN and EPON in a pay-asyou-grow manner while providing backward compatibility with a legacy infrastructure and protecting previous investments. To investigate the performance of FiWi networks, the capacity of WMNs is evaluated through probabilistic analysis and verifying simulations. Advanced aggregation techniques are proposed and examined to improve FiWi network throughput-delay performance for voice, video, and data traffic under realistic wireless channel conditions.
