Abstract

600 Mbps data rate with 20 m of propagation distance has been achieved in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless LAN (WLAN) system by using a group layered space-time (GLST) algorithm [3]. This system needs to transmit many data at one time in order to achieve high throughput. We propose a MAC protocol using technique of aggregation for this system. We can decrease packet error rate (PER) and increase the transmit data if we use technique of aggregation. The computer simulations for MIMO WLAN systems show the effectiveness of technique of aggregation.
