Topic: Throughput Optimization Using Adaptive Techniques

Objective: Maximization of single user throughput in a wireless channel

using the symbol rate, Packet length, and the constellation
size of MQAM modulation as optimization variables.

Introduction:
Throughput is defined as the number of bits per second correctly received. It can

be affected by various by the channel environment such as the distance between

transmitter and receiver, the fading state of the channel, and the noise and the

interference power characteristics. After carefully reviewing [1] and [2] we came to know

that symbol rate, Packet length, and the constellation size are SNR dependent and can

be adapted dynamically in response to the mobility of a wireless data terminal.
