In this paper we compare between the maximum Throughputs
received in IEEE 802.11ax and IEEE 802.11ac in a scenario
where a single user continuously transmits to another one. 
The comparison is done as a function of the Modulation/Coding
scheme in use. In IEEE 802.11ax we consider two modes
of operation where in one Acknowledgment frame up to
64 or 256 frames are acknowledged respectively.
IEEE 802.11ax outperforms IEEE 802.11ac by at most 48% and 29%
in unreliable and reliable channels respectively.
