Abstract In multi-cell Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN), co-channel interference between access points, and interference between co-channel users located in neighbored cells are existed, which lead the system performance different from the situation in a single-cell WLAN. A system throughput estimation method is proposed. Three important features of this method are that co-channel overlapping is allowed, hybrid data rates are allowed, and non-uniform distribution of users is allowed. The simulation results on the access point placement and the channel assignment show that the estimation method meets system design.
