Mitigating hidden nodes

[aksel.nielsen]

Hi,

I have a problem with hidden nodes, in "the old days" i would use RST/CTS to try and mitigate the problem.

I don't see that option i the WLC.

Is the some other way to make adjustments in the WLC to mitigate problems with hidden nodes?

The overall ways to mitigate the " hidden node " are

Increasing Transmitting Power From the Nodes
Using Omnidirectional antennas
Removing obstacles
Moving the node
Using Antenna Diversity: MIMO technology , 802.11n

Good response Saurav. +5

Also make smaller cells, lower transmit power.

Can you explain in detail how MIMO fixes hide node?
