A novel throughput optimization approach in wireless systems

In this paper, we propose a mathematical framework to maximize the user throughput in a wireless channel using various parameters such the symbol rate, the packet length, and the constellation size as optimization variables. The optimization equations with each of the above degrees of freedom have been presented. We see a gain in choosing the parameters using a theoretical framework. We also present some implementation constraints and their effects on performance of the system. The analytical results match very well with the simulation results. Simulation results show that the throughput can be improved greatly.
