Modelling MIMO For Indoor WLANs Present by Noel Roshan Francis Outline Introduction Simulating MIMO Systems Using NS2 Result Conclusion Introduction wireless local-area network (WLAN) A type of local-area network that uses high frequency radio waves rather than wires to communicate between nodes. Wireless LAN The costs and trouble of running cables through the indoor have been removed. Consumers now have an easy and convenient way to connect and get reliable coverage with the speed and reliability to stream multimedia applications. Some Wireless LAN Standards The WLAN Physical Layer The Shadowing Model Signal propagation between transmitter and receiver is affected by obstacles, such as human or physical objects. Diversity Diversity is the technique of transmitting the same signal over multiple channels to achieve higher reliability. WLAN technologies WLAN technologies for the physical layer SISO - Single Input Single Output MIMO - Multi Input Multi Output SISO Source and Destination using single antenna themselves for communication. MIMO Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) wireless systems, characterized by multiple antenna elements at the transmitter and receiver. MIMO Systems Multiple-In Multiple-Out takes advantage of multi-path to increase wireless bandwidth and range. MIMO algorithms send information out over two or more antennas and the information is received via multiple antennas as well. MIMO uses the additional pathways to transmit more information and then recombines the signal on the receiving end. MIMO systems provide a significant capacity gain over conventional single antenna systems, along with more reliable communication. MIMO Advantages Higher data rate can be transmitted using the same WLAN (up to 6 times more speed). Better robustness and reliability in the wireless links (up to 8 times more coverage ). Easy mitigation of the multipath interference. NS2 What is it? Ns2 is a discrete event simulator tar
