A New Performance Parameter for IEEE 802.11 DCF
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we define a new performance parameter, named PPT, for 802.11 DCF, which binds successful transmission probability and saturation throughput together. An expression of optimal minimum contention windows (CWmin) is obtained analytically for maximizing PPT. For simplicity, we give a name DCF-PPT to the 802.11 DCF that sets its CWmin according this expression. The simulation results indicate that, compared to 802.11 DCF, DCF-PPT can significantly increase the PPT and successful transmission probability (about 0.95) in condition that the saturation throughput is not decreased.

PUMA – A New Channel Access Protocol for Wireless LANs
In this paper we propose an extension of the IEEE 802.11 DCF protocol [5] called PUMA (Priority Unavoidable Multiple Access). PUMA can easy be implemented in wireless network cards instead of IEEE 802.11 DCF. It has been shown through simulation that PUMA is fair, efficient, stable and allows for provision of time-bounded services. Moreover, its performance is unaffected by hidden stations. The...
متن کاملA Hybrid Distributed Coordination Function for Scalability and Inter-operability in Large-scale WLANs
The distributed coordination function (DCF) of IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol is not scalable as the number of users on a network increases. We propose two new contention resolution schemes to reduce the number of collisions between a large number of contending mobile stations. The hybrid DCF (H-DCF) scheme splits contention resolution into two phases to improve scalability. Enhanced hybrid DCF (EHDC...

IEEE 802.11 Medium Access Control(MAC) is proposed to support asynchronous and time bounded delivery of radio data packets in infrastructure and ad hoc networks. The basis of the IEEE 802.11 WLAN MAC protocol is Distributed Coordination Function(DCF), which is a Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance(CSMA/CA) with binary slotted exponential back-off scheme. Since IEEE 802.11 MAC...

Many performance evaluations for IEEE 802.11distributed coordination function (DCF) have been previouslyreported in the literature. Some of them have clearly indicatedthat 802.11 MAC protocol has poor performance in multi-hopwireless ad hoc networks due to exposed and hidden nodeproblems. Although RTS/CTS transmission scheme mitigatesthese phenomena, it has not been successful in thoroughlyomit...

Carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance CSMA/CA methods are considered to be attractive MAC protocols for wireless LANs. IEEE 802.11 distributed coordination function DCF is a random channel access scheme based on CSMA/CA method and the binary slotted exponential backoff procedure to reduce the packet collision. In this paper, we propose a new analytical model for a nonsaturated ...
