To overlap or not to overlap: Enabling channel bonding in high-density WLANs

Abstract: Wireless local area networks (WLANs) are the most popular kind of wireless Internet connection. However, the number of devices accessing the Internet through WLANs such as laptops, smartphones, or wearables, is increasing drastically at the same time that applications' throughput requirements do. To cope with the later challenge, channel bonding (CB) techniques are used for enabling higher data rates by transmitting in wider channels. Nonetheless, some important issues such as higher potential co-channel inter… Show more

“…Their model takes into account channel bonding and it handles unsaturated networks with collisions, however the model is limited to fully-connected WLANs. Barrachina-Muñoz et al developed Markovian models for predicting throughput in saturated [5] and unsaturated [27] WLANs using different Dynamic Channel Bonding (DCB) policies in dense networks. They find that the DCB policy has a high impact on the networks performance and that inter-node dependencies are important even outside carrier sensing zones.…”

“…In [2], authors show that CB can provide significant performance gains even in high-density scenarios, though it may also cause unfairness. Non-saturation regimes are considered in [13], [14], where authors propose an analytical model for the throughput performance of CB in 11ac/11ax WLANs under both saturated and nonsaturated traffic loads. An analytical framework to study the performance of opportunistic CB where 11ac users coexist with legacy users is presented in [15].…”

“…The analysis of CSMA/CA networks through CTMN models was firstly introduced in [23]. Such models were later applied to IEEE 802.11 networks in [2], [4], [6], [13], [14], [19], [24], [25], among others. Experimental results in [26], [27] demonstrate that CTMN models, while idealized, provide remarkably accurate throughput estimates for actual IEEE 802.11 systems.…”

“…That is, WLANs are only allowed to decrement their backoff and start transmissions when the CCA condition is accomplished. In (Barrachina-Muñoz et al, 2018a), authors use SFCTMN to assess the performance of high density WLANs under different traffic loads.…”
