As more people access the global Internet through wireless networks, the limited capacity of wireless networks is becoming a major challenge of our information-based society. Building around the point-to-point architecture, where the basic transmission unit is from a single transmitter to a single receiver, current wireless networks are shown to be severely limited in throughput and do not scale well as they become large and dense. Thus, it is time for a fundamental revisit and change to the wireless network system architecture, in order to explore distributed cooperation and one-to-many encoding/decoding in wireless networks. The MatrixNet project uses a component-based framework to design implementable, distributed concurrency algorithms and protocols, spanning routing, media access control, and physical layers. It bridges and goes beyond theoretical asymptotic analysis in information theory in order to identify fundamental, algorithmic and system challenges facing the emerging, increasingly important field of system concurrent wireless networks. The project integrates multiple experimental platforms, including Sora, GNU radio, and networked MIMO, and conducts systematic, realistic evaluations. The project team consists of both academic and industrial researchers to facilitate potential technology transfer and cross-institution collaboration.

随着越来越多的人通过无线网络访问全球互联网，无线网络的有限容量正成为我们信息化社会的主要挑战。围绕点对点架构构建，其中基本传输单元是从单个发射机到单个接收机，当前的无线网络被证明在吞吐量方面受到严重限制，并且随着它们变得庞大和密集而不能很好地扩展。因此，是时候对无线网络系统架构进行根本性的重新审视和改变，以探索无线网络中的分布式协作和一对多编码/解码。MatrixNet项目使用基于组件的框架来设计可实现的分布式并发算法和协议，跨越路由、媒体访问控制和物理层。它的桥梁和超越信息理论的理论渐近分析，以确定基本的，算法和系统面临的挑战，日益重要的领域，系统并发无线网络。该项目集成了多个实验平台，包括索拉，GNU无线电和网络MIMO，并进行系统的，现实的评估。该项目团队由学术和工业研究人员组成，以促进潜在的技术转让和跨机构合作。
