Abstract
This paper proposes the use of multiple patterns (MP) to increase the capacity of Frequency Hopping (FH) Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs). The use of MP in WLANs can significantly reduce the probability of collision on the Medium Access Control (MAC) layer. However, it also introduces more interference on the physical layer to the neighboring WLANs. We analyze the combined effects of the MAC and physical layers and evaluate the performance in terms of packet error probability, normalized throughput and transmission delay of FH MP WLANs under saturated condition. Results show that the use of multiple patterns can significantly improve the performance.
