ViFi™ - V-band Wireless Local Area Network

This paper presents ViFi^TM, a V-band wireless local area network (WLAN) that utilizes the unlicensed V-band spectrum while resolving the propagation challenges at V-band. ViFi^TM allows for utilization of existing compatible waveforms, such 802.11g and ultra-wide band (UWB), and provides anti-shadowing capability to provide mobility throughout the network coverage area. In addition, three main applications for ViFi^TM are discussed in this paper; namely: low probability detection WLANs, airborne WLANs and high throughput WLANs.
