Although there exist random backoff schemes in WLANs, a collision problem among stations (STAs) is one of the critical factors that degrade the performance of WLAN systems. To mitigate this collision problem, a MIMO-based uplink collision mitigation scheme is proposed by utilizing additional degrees of freedom through multiple antennas, and, consequently, enhances the system performance. Analysis and simulation results show that there is at least 30% throughput enhancement in a basic service set (BSS) with more than 10 STAs, compared to the performance of conventional WLANs in case of saturation traffic.
