This proposal by Texas Instruments aims to increase network throughput by optimizing preamble and header sizes for short packets, introducing new preamble and header formats, and enhancing data rates. Simulation results show significant throughput improvements at different data rates.

Motivation for a Shorter P/H • For short PSDUs, preamble and header spans a large portion of the packet • Large P/H wastes valuable resources and decreases the network throughput • Can reduce overhead by: • defining a new preamble, and • increasing the data rate for the header Anuj Batra et al., Texas Instruments

Increasing the Data Rate to 33Mbps in Wireless Ethernet via Clock Switching Anuj Batra et al., Texas Instruments
Introduction • The existing IEEE 802.11b standard, and the TI proposed 22 Mbps extension to the standard, is based upon an 11 Msps symbol rate and a bandwidth occupancy of 20 MHz. In terms of modern digital communications techniques such as pulse shaping and adaptive equalization, a more aggressive symbol rate in the same bandwidth is practical. However, in order to deal with inter-operability with existing networks, the structure of the preamble, including the symbol rate of the preamble, must not change. A viable method to address these issues is to transmit an 11Msps preamble followed by a higher symbol rate encoded data rate. Means and issues involving the switch in the clock are addressed in this presentation. The suggested increase in rate by 50% to 16.5 Msps yields a data rate of 33 Mbps.
