Licence-exempt wireless communication systems

S Kawade and T Hodgkinson

It explains the problems of interferences that wifi deployments suffer from. This is a barrier for the widespread of unlicensed spectrum networks. The overall performance seriously decreases when the number of users/cells is increased, specially in those cases in which there is not careful planning. The authors suggest the use of self-organizing networks that control the output power. My personal opinion is that OFDMA, MIMO, and directional arrays should be other solutions for the problem.
