Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Channel bonding technology, which bundles multiple adjacent channels for frame transmission, is one of the promising way for improving throughput performance in IEEE802.11ac wireless LANs. However, channel bonding technology leads to co-channel interference with other access points (APs) within the bonded channels. In our previous study, we investigated transmission performance of several commercially-available 802.11ac APs. As a result, we clarified three communication procedures from difference in method of implementation of Request To Send (RTS) / Clear To Send (CTS) or not. Furthermore, we investigated the impact of RTS/CTS on transmission performance by conducting experiments where two APs using RTS/CTS are competing in a bonded channels. However, we have not investigated transmission performance in the case that APs with different transmission procedures compete with each other in a bonded channels. Therefore, in this study, we conducted experiments using real WLAN products. Then, we compared and evaluated the communication performance in the case that two APs with different transmission procedures compete in the same channel. As a result, we showed that the AP employing CTS-to-self doesn’t set duration time in CTS frames, thereby the communication performance of the AP using RTS/CTS in channel bonding degrades due to frequent collisions in conflict channel. On the other hand, since AP not using RTS/CTS dynamically adjusts the number of data frames for each transmission opportunity to avoid frame collisions, we confirmed that the communication performance can be relatively maintained even under the competitive environment.
