Abstract
We propose a cross-layer switching method of orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) and multiuser multiple input multiple output (MU-MIMO) for the future wireless local area network systems. The proposed method, employed on the medium access control layer, switches between OFDMA and MU-MIMO as the transmission method after processing by using physical layer information such as an overhead of channel state information feedback, station number, and data length in order to improve the transmission efficiency. Simulation results show that the proposed method achieves higher total throughput than conventional OFDMA or MU-MIMO where switching is not performed.
