Abstract

In these days, with the diffusion of mobile equipments, the number of WiFi Access Point (AP) is increasing, and the growth of WiFi AP causes the throughput degradation due to interferences between APs. This recent phenomenon demands the method able to be utilized with current WiFi network to improve the throughput of Wireless LANs. This paper studied the channel assignment method and several throughput enhancement methods to optimize Radio Resource Management (RRM) for distributed infrastructure WLANs. As a result, it was able to put AP independently, improve older allocation error, and improve execution speed.

최근 스마트 이동 단말기기의 급속한 보급과 더불어 많은 수의WiFi Access Point (AP)가 설치되어 사용되고 있으며, WiFi AP의 증가는 AP 간의 상호 간섭에 의한 트래픽 처리 성능의 저하를 발생시킨다. 이런 현상은 기존 WiFi 망에 활용할 수 있는 트래픽 성능을 향상시키기 위한 방법을 요구한다. 본 연구에서는 트래픽 성능을 향상시키기 위하여 AP의 무선 자원 관리 (RRM : Radio Resource Management)를 최적화하기 위한 채널 할당 방법과 분산형 Wireless LAN (WLAN) 에서의 트래픽 성능 향상 방법에 대하여 연구하였다. 그 결과, AP 단독으로 실행되어 기존방식의 할당 오류를 개선하고 실행속도를 증가시킬 수 있었다.
