Adaptive Multi Radio Interface Control Based on 802.11 AX WLANs

In order to efficiently accommodate heavy wireless traffic in the 5G/IoT era, an attractive approach is to utilize wireless LAN (WLAN). To enhance the WLAN system capacity, it is considered to acquire and utilize multi radio interface in the access points (APs). However, the conventional radio resource control techniques do not take into account variety of multi radio interface, the effect of multi radio interface is no sufficiently exhibited. In this paper, we propose a novel multi radio interface control scheme based on simultaneous transmission technique of the new generation wireless LAN (802.11ax). The proposed scheme uses standard WLAN information of each station (STA) to control the setting of each radio interface of the APs and connection to the STAs. The effectiveness of the proposal is clarified by computer simulation.
