Abstract

Nowadays, WiFi is mostly operating in 2.4 GHz band, which allows only 3 non-overlapping channels. For deployment in building it could be a problem to repeat only three channels. In this paper we compare standard three channel scheme (channels 1, 6 and 11) with four channel schemes. The most promising scheme is with channels 1, 5, 9 and 13, which involves overlapping channels, but the overlap is minimal and in certain distances (power levels) is possible to use this scheme. The problem could be in some countries which do not allow usage of 13 channels. We also compare other schemes, with overlapping channels, but they have a much lower throughput than scheme with channels 1, 5, 9 and 13.
