Despite extensive studies and dramatic performance, the conventional carrier sensing mechanism emerges some drawbacks especially in the overlapping BSS scenario responsible for employment of MU-MIMO and bandwidth expansion. In order to address the issue of conventional carrier sensing mechanism, namely, redundant or useless network allocation vector (NAV) setting, this paper proposes an enhanced NAV transmission mechanism, which not only needs little modifications to current standard draft but also can achieve performance improvement significantly. On this basis, in order to solve the SINR inaccuracy calculated based on null data packet (NDP) in the actual MU-MIMO transmission, the SINR feedback mechanism is proposed and the frame structure modifications are displayed in detail. Furthermore, theoretical analysis is also performed on the proposed mechanism and the formulas of the achieved gains are also derived. Numerical results confirm the validation of our theoretical analysis and further substantiate that the proposed scheme obtains obvious throughput gain over the conventional mechanism. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2014\/927192","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,1,28]],"date-time":"2014-01-28T21:02:33Z","timestamp":1390942953000},"page":"927192","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Cooperative Transmission Mechanisms in Next Generation WiFi: IEEE 802.11ac"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"10","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9106-2431","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Baofeng","family":"Ji","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Information Engineering, Henan University of Science and Technology, Luoyang 471000, China"}]},{"given":"Kang","family":"Song","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Information Science and Engineering, Southeast University, Nanjing 210096, China"}]},{"given":"Ying","family":"Hu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Information Science and Engineering, Southeast University, Nanjing 210096, China"},{"name":"Institute of Electronics and Information, Jiangsu University of Science and Technology, Zhenjiang 212003, China"}]},{"given":"Hongjun","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Information Engineering, Henan University of Science and Technology, Luoyang 471000, China"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,12,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"B3-2014-927192","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/T-WC.2009.070993"},{"key":"B4-2014-927192","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/49.840210"},{"key":"B5-2014-927192","first-page":"142","volume-title":"Proceedings of the 17th Annual IEEE Conference on Computer Communications (INFOCOM '98)","volume":"1","author":"Cali F."},{"key":"B6-2014-927192","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/TWC.2011.010411.100266"},{"key":"B7-2014-927192","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11277-009-9731-2"},{"key":"B8-2014-927192","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/BWCCA.2011.81"},{"key":"B9-2014-927192","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1049\/el:20081505"},{"key":"B10-2014-927192","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/FGCN.2008.181"},{"key":"B11-2014-927192","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1049\/el.2010.2402"},{"key":"B12-2014-927192","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1049\/el:20031081"},{"key":"B13-2014-927192","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/ICCT.2010.5688621"},{"first-page":"881","volume-title":"Proceedings of the IEEE 50th Global Telecommunications Conference","author":"Ji B.
