| 總結: | In this paper, the performance of IEEE 802.11n Wi-Fi
technology at 5.18 GHz frequency in one of the rural areas in Malaysia, which is typically covered by dense tropical
foliage, is evaluated and analyzed. To our best knowledge,
studies on the performance of the IEEE 802.11n technology
in foliage area have not been fully explored. We have
conducted line-of-sight and non-line-of-sight measurements
through the tropical foliage using directional high gain
antennas to determine the throughput and other well-known
performance metrics. It is observed that by utilizing the key features of 802.11n such as channel bonding and short guard interval, superior performance results can be achieved for both aforementioned situations. Precise correlation of utilized hardware specification and acquired results in different points is another aspect of this work. The findings are useful for future rural wireless deployment particularly with low height
antenna using IEEE 802.11n technology. |
