“…The existing work selects the best AP based on the link state or AP's state, which is measured by metrics such as SNR [20], ESNR [12] and load balancing of AP [17]. However, these metrics reflect the current link state or AP's state, and selecting AP based on the current link state or AP's state causes frequent AP switching in the near future without considering the mobile client's moving direction.…”

In indoor areas such as homes and offices, high throughput communication for multiple devices is quickly becoming a necessity. Even though an access point (AP) mounted with an omni-directional antenna can cover a whole room, it cannot provide connections with high throughput throughout the room. Therefore, we propose, DiRF, a directional antenna based wireless home network designed to achieve high throughput in indoor areas with densely deployed directional APs. DiRF consists of a position based AP selection algorithm which can decrease latency accumulation caused by frequent AP switching, and a downlink packet scheduler which can reduce the downlink packet retransmissions during AP switching. We implement and evaluate DiRF with six commercial APs, each connects with a single directional antenna. Our experiments show that DiRF achieves a 3.16× TCP throughput improvement, compared to the conventional scheme that only uses one AP mounted with one omni-directional antenna.
