WiFi-Nano

Proceedings of the 17th annual international conference on Mobile computing and networking - MobiCom '11
The increase in WiFi physical layer transmission speeds from 1 Mbps to 1 Gbps has reduced transmission times for a 1500 byte packet from 12 ms to 12 µs. However, WiFi MAC overheads such as channel access and acks have not seen similar reductions and cumulatively contribute about 150 µs on average per packet. Thus, the efficiency of WiFi has deteriorated from over 80% at 1 Mbps to under 10% at 1 Gbps. In this paper, we propose WiFi-Nano, a system that uses 800 ns slots to significantly improve
