Constrained channel bonding based on maximum achievable throughput in WLANs

In Wireless Local Area Networks, channel bonding allows several basic channels to constitute a wide channel. The wide channel can increase potential throughput in a single Basic Service Set (BSS). However, channel contention among BSSs is more serious because the number of non-overlapping channels decreases. Therefore, the appropriate channel bandwidth should be chosen to improve the throughput of the whole network. In this paper, to control...
