Abstract

In a Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) wireless local area network (WLAN) system, a method is provided for selecting at least one antenna from a plurality of antennas and transmitting a data frame from a station to an access point via the selected antenna or antennas. A method for transmitting data from a plurality of stations to an access point in the MIMO WLAN system includes detecting a channel status of a channel from the access point to each transmitting antenna of the station, selecting at least one transmitting antenna from among the station's transmitting antennas based on the detected channel status, and transmitting a data frame from the station to the access point via the selected transmitting antenna or antennas.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application is a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 12 / 599,463, filed on Nov. 9, 2009, which is the National Stage of International Application No. PCT / KR2008 / 002606, filed May 9, 2008, and claims priority from and the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2007-0045848, filed on May 11, 2007, all of which are hereby incorporated by reference for all purposes as if fully set forth herein.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]The present invention relates to a Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) wireless local area network (WLAN) system, and more particularly, to a method for selecting at least one antenna from a plurality of antennas and transmitting a data frame via the selected antenna or antennas.[0004]2. Discussion of the Background[0005]A WLAN is a short distance communication network where signals can be transmitted wirelessly between nodes, such as stations and an access point. The WLAN ...
