 Other advances in packetization, antenna use, multiuser MIMO
Many
WLAN
cards
have
(a/b/g/n)
32
Why does WiFi performance suck?
 Carrier Sense Multiple Access:
if another WiFi signal detected, random
backoff
 Collision Detection: if collision detected,
resend
33
 The WiFi standard lacks good mechanisms to mitigate interference,
especially in dense AP deployments
 Multiple access protocol (CSMA/CD) from 1970s
 Static channel assignment, power levels, and carrier sensing thresholds
 In such deployments WiFi systems exhibit poor spectrum reuse and
significant contention among APs and clients
 Result is low throughput and a poor user experience
 Multiuser MIMO will help each AP, but not interfering APs
Self-Organizing Networks for WiFi
 SoN-for-WiFi: dynamic self-organization
network software to manage of WiFi APs.
 Allows for capacity/coverage/interference
mitigation tradeoffs.
 Also provides network analytics and planning.

Shannon’s Capacity Limit
We are at the Shannon Limit
 “The wireless industry has
reached the theoretical
limit of how fast networks
can go” K. Fitcher,
Connected Planet
 “We’re 99% of the way” to
the “barrier known as
Shannon’s limit,” D. Warren,
GSM Association Sr. Dir. of
Tech.
Shannon was wrong, there is no
limit
 “There is no theoretical
maximum to the amount of
data that can be carried by
a radio channel” M. Gass,
802.11 Wireless Networks:
The Definitive Guide
 “Effectively unlimited”
capacity possible via
personal cells (pcells). S.
Perlman, Artemis.
 Theoretical limit of maximum data rate
· log 1

 We don’t know the Shannon capacity of most
wireless channels…
 Time varying channels
 Channels with interference or relays

41
Shannon theory provides design insights
and system performance upper bounds
Conclusion
 The wireless vision encompasses many exciting
applications
 Technical challenges transcend all system design
layers
 5G networks must support higher performance for
some users, extreme energy efficiency and/or low
latency for others
 Cloud-based software to dynamically control and
optimize wireless networks needed (SDWN)
 Innovative wireless design needed for 5G
