Abstract

To realize high data rate wireless communication systems, much attention is being payed to multi-user diversity due to large bandwidth availability. Multi-user diversity based opportunistic scheduling is a modern view communication over fading wireless channels, whereby, unlike rate adaptation based schemes, channel variations are exploited rather than mitigated. This paper proposes a multi-user diversity scheme for IEEE 802.11 infrastructure wireless LAN to enhance the throughput. Numerical investigations show the throughput superiority of the scheme over IEEE 802.11 standard and other method
