Centralized Control Method of Multi-Radio and Terminal Connection for 802.11 Wireless LAN Mixed Environment

In this paper, we propose a novel centralized control method to handle multi-radio and terminal connections in an 802.11ax wireless LAN (802.11ax) mixed environment. The proposed control method can improve the throughput by applying 802.11ax Spatial Reuse in an environment hosting different terminal standards and mixed terminal communication quality. We evaluate the proposed control method by computer simulations assuming environments with mixed terminal standards, mixed communication quality, and both.
