Scaling Wireless Uplink Capacity with Multi-User Beamforming

Article Preview

Abstract:

Due to the fact that the wireless spectrum is limited but the wireless demand can grow unlimited, how to improve the wireless capacity becomes one of the hot topics in wireless network field. In this paper, we focus on the scenario of busy wireless environment, and present a protocol with multiple user beamforming. The protocol enables a network to scale its uplink throughput with the number of access points. Theoretical and experimental results show that our protocol have higher uplink throughput compared with 802.11. Moreover, our protocol is the first method that shows that linear scaling of uplink throughput with the number of access points is possible.
