Convexity Conditions for 802.11 WLANs
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we characterise the maximal convex subsets of the (non-convex) rate region in 802.11 WLANs. In addition to being of intrinsic interest as a fundamental property of 802.11 WLANs, this characterisation can be exploited to allow the wealth of convex optimisation approaches to be applied to 802.11 WLANs.

Performance Analysis of 802.11 WLANs Under Sporadic Traffic
We analyze the performance of 802.11 WLANs that employ the Distributed Coordination Function (DCF). We consider contending stations within radio proximity, and investigate the case in which stations operate under nonsaturated conditions. Our modelling technique can be used to study several important issues in 802.11 networks, such as the impact of bursty traffic and the system performance in a ...

متن کاملMulti-destination Aggregation with Binary Symmetric Broadcast Channel Based Coding in 802.11 WLANs
In this paper we consider the potential benefits of adopting a binary symmetric broadcast channel paradigm for multi-destination aggregation in 802.11 WLANs, as opposed to a more conventional packet erasure channel paradigm. We propose two approaches for multi-destination aggregation, i.e. superposition coding and a simpler time-sharing coding. Theoretical and simulation results for both unicas...
متن کاملError Bound of Collision Probability Estimation in Non-saturated IEEE 802.11 WLANs
We analytically prove that the error in the channel idle time-based collision probability estimation in face of non-saturated stations is bounded by 2/(CWmin+1) in the IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs (WLANs). This work explicitly quantifies the impact of non-saturation, and the result vindicates the use of the estimation technique in real-life IEEE 802.11 WLANs, in such applications as the acknowledg...
متن کاملA Rate-Adaptive Multimedia Multicasting Mechanism in Multi-Rate 802.11 Wireless LANs∗
IEEE 802.11 WLAN service is broadening its service area rapidly. One of the major driving factors of WLANs is multimedia services such as VOD or HDTV delivered by multicast protocols. However, there have been little research on how to efficiently operate multicast protocols in IEEE 802.11 WLANs. The most widespread variants of IEEE 802.11 standards, 802.11b and 802.11a, are characterized by the...
