Análisis de rendimiento del estándar IEEE 802.11ax para escenarios con alta concentración de tráfico y densidad de usuarios mediante simulación

Abstract

The IEEE 802.11ax standard, known as Wi-Fi 6, emerges as an advanced solution to connectivity challenges in environments with high user density and intensive traffic. This standard incorporates innovative technologies, such as OFDMA and MU-MIMO, enabling more efficient and reliable transmission compared to previous generations. This research analyzes the performance of the IEEE 802.11ax standard through simulations in environments with high traffic concentration, such as educational institutions. Key metrics, including transfer rate, latency, packet loss, and spectral efficiency, are evaluated under different user density scenarios. The results obtained will help identify the advantages and limitations of the standard, providing guidelines for its optimal implementation in real-world contexts where high-quality wireless connectivity is essential for academic and administrative activities.
