Abstract
The introduction of space-division multiple access techniques into wireless ATM systems is presented. The concepts are embedded in the framework of the HIPERLAN/2 system, which is currently under standardization by the ETSI project BRAN. HIPERLAN/2 aims at the provision of broadband services with guaranteed QoS. Originally started as a WATM standardization initiative, its scope has been broadened and now aims at core network independence. Essential system functions, such as scheduling algorithms and random access, are reviewed in the light of the spatial dimension. To give an impression of their performance, some key results are briefly discussed. Although adopted for HIPERLAN/2, the ideas are generally applicable and can be transferred to various systems.
