| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This work focuses on wireless local area networks (WLANs) and proposes novel mechanisms for solving wireless bandwidth shortage problem. We propose wireless media integrations which leverage microwave communications, millimeter-wave communications, and communications using optical camera. The proposed mechanisms increased the WLAN system throughput more than 50% and increased the throughput of a WLAN user fivefold when users download large volume files via the WLAN.
