Abstract

In the last years, IEEE 802.11 Wireless LANs (WLANs) have proved their effectiveness for a wide range of real-time industrial communication applications. Nonetheless, the enhancements at the PHY and MAC layers introduced by the IEEE 802.11n amendment have not yet been adequately addressed in the context of industrial communication. In this paper we investigate the impact of some IEEE 802.11n new features on some important performance figures for industrial applications, such as timeliness and reliability.
