Collision Probability in Saturated IEEE 802.11 Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we study the impact of channel capture following a busy period on collision probabilities in a saturated IEEE 802.11 network. A new analytical model that takes into account the previous channel status is proposed to obtain collision probabilities. Using simulation, we show that the well-known fixed point analysis, which is a special case of the new model, becomes more accurate as the size of the initial backoff window increases.

Error 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 کاملCross-Layer Optimization of Voice over IP in Wireless Mesh Networks
Optimizing the operation of IEEE 802.11 networks requires estimatingthe load of the wireless channel. The channel busy fraction, which is thefraction of time in which the wireless channel is sensed busy due to suc-cessful or unsuccessful transmissions, can be used as indicator for this pur-pose. It can be obtained from e.g. the IEEE 802.11k channel load reportor hardware-spe...
متن کاملAchieving performance enhancement in IEEE 802.11 WLANs by using the DIDD backoff mechanism
Wireless local area networks (WLANs) based on the IEEE 802.11 standards have been widely implemented mainly because of their easy deployment and low cost. The IEEE 802.11 collision avoidance procedures utilize the binary exponential backoff (BEB) scheme that reduces the collision probability by doubling the contention window after a packet collision. In this paper, we propose an easy-to-impleme...
متن کاملPer-node throughput and fairness analysis of IEEE 802.11 wireless networks with hidden nodes
This work seeks to develop an analytical model for the per-node throughput analysis of IEEE 802.11 WLAN networks with hidden nodes by extending Bianchi’s model. With the analytic model we derive the per-node throughput of each node and quantify the impact of hidden nodes on per-node throughput. Through our analysis, we find that nodes having more hidden nodes are likely to have worse throughput...
