The 802.11 a/b/g/n standards allow the use of multiple transmission rates 802.11b, 4 rate options (1,2,5.5,11Mbps) 802.11a, 8 rate options (6,9,12,18,24,36,48,54 Mbps) 802.11g, 12 rate options (11a set + 11b set) The method to select the transmission rate in real time is called “Rate Adaptation” Rate adaptation is important yet unspecified by the 802.11 standards Why do we need “Rate Adaptation” ? Why do we need “Rate Adaptation” ? Why do we need “Rate Adaptation” ? Why do we need “Rate Adaptation” ? How to adjust the rate ? Rate adaptation plays a critical role to the throughput performance Ideally, the transmission rate should be adjusted according to the …… How to estimate channel condition ? SNR of the channel SNR of receiver…… no feedback in 802.11…… fluctuation of SNR…… Gauging how well the currently chosen rate performs (Statistics: transmission loss/success) not timely affected by random collisions (unnecessary downshift) Outline Introduction of Rate Adaptati
