Traffic-Aware Channel Assignment in Wireless LANs

Date: January 2008
Type: White Paper
Rating: (1)

Overview: This research paper discusses how campus and enterprise wireless networks are increasingly characterized by ubiquitous coverage and rising traffic demands. Efficiently assigning channels to Access Points (APs) in these networks can significantly affect the performance and capacity of the wireless LAN. Several research studies have tackled this issue. However, even the state-of-the-art approaches assign channels without considering prevailing traffic demands. The channel assignment problem has a parallel in the wire-line world, where recent work has established the tremendous effectiveness of using traffic demands in network engineering decisions.
