With WACA, we perform a first-of-its-kind measurement campaign in areas including urban hotspots, residential neighborhoods, universities, and a sold-out stadium with 98,000 fans and 12,000 simultaneous Wi-Fi connections. The gathered dataset is a unique asset to find insights otherwise not possible in the context of multi-channel technologies like Wi-Fi. To show its potential, we compare the performance of contiguous and non-contiguous channel bonding using a trace-driven framework. We show that while non-contiguous outperforms contiguous channel bonding's throughput, occasionally bigger by a factor of 5, their average throughputs are similar.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/2008.11978v1","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/2008.11978v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"wi-fi-all-channel-analyzer","repo_url":"https://github.com/sergiobarra/WACA_WiFiAnalyzer","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
