English abstract:
The demand for fast, reliable and cost effective data
transmission in home environments is ever increasing. Every
new WLAN standard offers a higher data rate and better
performance, at the cost of being more prone to interference.
Interference mitigation techniques are not fully addressed in
standard and leave room for improvement. Cross-technology
interferers in ISM bands, such as microwave oven and video
streaming, have a significant effect on the performance of these
networks. In this paper, we investigate the impact of these
interferers on 802.11n networks in a crowded 2.4 GHz band. We
propose a repeatable test setup for conducting measurements
with real-world interference sources. In order to allow for a
comparison between WLAN devices, we propose a KPI-based
performance assessment which is beneficial to evaluate the device
under test.
