A study on wireless LAN technologies based on mathematical model of physical phenomena

With the growth of wireless communication technologies, the number of mobile devices equipped with wireless LAN (WLAN) interfaces have increased. Then, WLAN has become one of important infrastructures in the current access network. In addition, it is anticipated to serve as a key network in next-generation wireless networks. However, it is known that WLAN has various issues such as throughput performance degradation and deployment of AP in appropriate place have emerged. This paper introduces our challenge to address these issues based on mathematical models that describe physical phenomena observed in nature. Expecially, we focus on the access controls and transmission rate prediction techniques. Then, this paper demonstrates some results of our studies.
