Simulating advanced Wi-Fi features – channel bonding and FA

In this section, we discuss how to use and configure all the supported features at the PHY and MAC layers for the advanced Wi-Fi 802.11n and ac standards, such as channel bonding, FA, SU-MIMO, and OFDM, supporting higher MCS values. To study these features systematically in ns-3 simulations, we will discuss a hands-on activity in a step-by-step procedure to configure an 802.11n/ac-supporting Wi-Fi LAN. However, we will first evaluate the 802.11n network only. Specially, we will discuss how the channel-bonding and FA features of the 802.11n standard are helpful to improve the throughput for STAs. In this hands-on activity, we discuss the following important activities:

  • Setting up an 802.11n/ac-standard-configurable Wi-Fi LAN with 1 AP and 10 STAs.
  • Deploying the AP at location 100,100.
  • Randomly deploying Wi-Fi STAs around the AP within a radius of 30 meters.
  • Configuring the RandomWalk mobility model...
