Next-generation Home WiFi networks have to step forward in terms of performance. New applications such as on-line games, virtual reality or high quality video contents will further demand higher throughput levels, as well as low latency.…

We propose and experimentally evaluate a novel method that dynamically changes the contention window of access points based on system load to improve performance in a dense Wi-Fi deployment. A key feature is that no MAC protocol changes,…

We obtain an association policy for STAs in an IEEE 802.11 WLAN by taking into account explicitly two aspects of practical importance: (a) TCP-controlled short file downloads interspersed with read times (motivated by web browsing), and (b)…

Hybrid light fidelity (LiFi) and wireless fidelity (WiFi) indoor networks has been envisioned as a promising technology to alleviate radio frequency spectrum crunch to accommodate the ever-increasing data rate demand in indoor scenarios.…

Wi-Fi in the enterprise - characterized by overlapping Wi-Fi cells - constitutes the design challenge for next-generation networks. Standardization for recently started IEEE 802.11be (Wi-Fi 7) Working Groups has focused on significant…

The increasing complexity of recent Wi-Fi amendments is making optimal Rate Adaptation (RA) a challenge. The use of classic algorithms or heuristic models to address RA is becoming unfeasible due to the large combination of configuration…

The increasing cloudification and softwarization of networks foster the interplay among multiple independently managed deployments. An appealing reason for such an interplay lies in distributed Machine Learning (ML), which allows the…

Wireless local area network (WLAN) access points (APs) are being deployed in high density to improve coverage and throughput. The emerging multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) implementation for uplink (UL) transmissions promises high…

The rapid development of Wi-Fi technologies in recent years has caused a significant increase in the traffic usage. Hence, knowledge obtained from Wi-Fi network measurements can be helpful for a more efficient network management. In this…

Joint access point (AP) association and physical carrier sensing (PCS) threshold selection has the potential to improve the performance in high density wireless LANs (WLANs) under high contention, interference and self-interference (SI)…

In this paper we design and implement a resource management scheme based on cooperative association, where the STAs can share useful information in order to improve the performance of the association/handoff procedures. The cooperative…

Universities worldwide are experiencing a surge in enrollments, therefore campus estate managers are seeking continuous data on attendance patterns to optimize the usage of classroom space. As a result, there is an increasing trend to…

We consider several WLAN stations associated at rates r1, r2, ..., rk with an Access Point. Each station is downloading a long file from a local server, located on the LAN to which the AP is attached. We model these simultaneous…

Device mobility in dense Wi-Fi networks offers several challenges. Two well-known problems related to device mobility are handover prediction and access point selection. Due to the complex nature of the radio environment, analytical models…

In the IEEE 802.11ax standard, a mode of operation called target wake time (TWT) is introduced towards enabling deterministic scheduling in WLAN networks. In the TWT mode, a group of stations (STAs) can negotiate with the access point (AP)…

Wireless communications are characterized by their unpredictability, posing challenges for maintaining consistent communication quality. This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of various prediction models, with a focus on achieving…

We propose a combined uplink/downlink opportunistic scheduling algorithm for infrastructure WLANs. In the presence of both uplink and downlink flows, an infrastructure WLAN suffers from the uplink/downlink unfairness problem which severely…

Densification of access points (APs) in wireless local area networks (WLANs) increases the interference and the contention domains of each AP due to multiple overlapped basic service sets (BSSs). Consequently, high interference from…

The emergence of smart Wi-Fi APs (Access Point), which are equipped with huge storage space, opens a new research area on how to utilize these resources at the edge network to improve users' quality of experience (QoE) (e.g., a short…

In this paper, we investigate the random access problem for a delay-constrained heterogeneous wireless network. As a first attempt to study this new problem, we consider a network with two users who deliver delay-constrained traffic to an…
