IEEE 802.11ah: Future Research Challenges and Opportunities

Abstract

Wi-Fi (wireless fidelity) IEEE 802.11 network is growing rapidly, but still has much weakness in coverage area, power consumption, and traffic. However, to overcome this weakness can use the IEEE 802.11ah standard, which has advantages to overcome area coverage, power consumption, and traffic. This paper comprehensively explains the development of the IEEE 802.11ah network and provides opportunities and challenges for the development of IEEE 802.11ah in the future. We are currently researching the IEEE 802.11ah challenge with the novelty of combining game theory with the winning game strategy to optimize the IEEE 802.11ah QoS network. (Abstract)
