Throughput Enhancement for Wireless Communication Systems Using the Multiple Antenna Technique MIMO

Overview One of the main goals in developing next generation wireless communication systems is increasing the data rates. A promising way to achieve this is the combination of Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) signal processing with Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM). A test system is built in which the OFDM based Wireless LAN standard IEEE 802.11a is extended with MIMO. Initial measurements are performed in a typical office building and successful transmissions up to 162 Mb/s are demonstrated in this paper.

The Ovum View: The wireless LAN security nightmare

The limited geographic range of a WLAN system does not prevent transmissions being intercepted outside a user site. Wireless LAN, whether based on the IEEE 802.11 or the Bluetooth standard, is a security nightmare.

TI's 'turbo Wi-Fi' - still born?

In the 802.11g standards battle, PBCC eventually lost ground to OFDM, or Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing, as the modem of choice. Texas Instruments' 'turbo Wi-Fi' technology may be downshifting out of the wireless networking fast lane...
