    Yes, it is possible only.

    We have implemented such a system.

    We have a 4 story bus park. The buses are using wireless unit with Proxim OEM module. And the busses have to communicate to our SERVER in the bus park through Proxim APs.

    The buses have the coverage (roaming as well) from entering to the bus park till they park at any of the floor.

    You can select any 2 non overlapping channel for this purpose.

    It is possible but hard to implement. It depends on the materials between floors.

    Also you when designing your channel re-use pattern you need to think in 3D. Every AP's cell should ONLY reach into the floor beneath and the floor above.
