• Next Generation Wireless Networking Technology.

• Improves Throughput, Range & Reliability of 802.11 systems.

• Spatial OFDM, provides more efficient modulation techniques

• Wider 40 MHz channels provide twice the legacy transmission bandwidth.

• Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) increases data rate.

• Frame Aggregation reduces transmission overhead.

• Multiple Simultaneous Tx• Multiple Simultaneous Rx

Multiple Spatial Streams

• 20 MHz• 20/40 MHz

Channel Width

• Deliver multiple frames• Reduce ACK overhead

AMPDU Aggregation + Block Ack

• Optimize throughput

Short Guard

• Single concatenated frame• Improve overall throughput

AMSDU Aggregation

• Minimum Idle time• Reduce overhead when transmitting

RIFS

• 11n clients must support at least 40MHz operation and AMPDU Aggregation to get best throughput

• The entire AMSDU is transmitted when an error occurs in contrast to AMPDU aggregation where only the error AMPDU is transmitted

• RIFS can be used in place of SIFS to separate multiple transmissions from a single transmitter when no SIFS-separated response transmission is expected as a means of reducing overhead

• The AP sets the RIFS Mode field of the HT IE to 1 if supported
