Usage of IEEE 802.11 MAC Model for PAP02: Wireless Communications for the Smart Grid - Task 6
نویسنده
چکیده
This M-file analyzes an Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.11 Machine Access Control (MAC) layer channel in which multiple nonsaturated stations compete for access to a single access point (AP). The M-file allows the user to model various effects at the physical (PHY) layer, including effects of fading, path loss, and shadowing. The function SNRcdf() performs the PHY layer calculations, which we discuss in more detail below; the user should consult the function’s README file for a full description.

A Hidden Node Aware Network Allocation Vector Management System for Multi-hop Wireless Ad hoc Networks
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...
متن کاملE-MAC: an elastic MAC layer for IEEE 802.11 networks
We present a system for real-time traffic support in infrastructure and ad-hoc IEEE 802.11 networks. The proposed Elastic MAC (E-MAC) protocol provides a distributed transmission schedule for stations with real-time traffic requirements, while allowing a seamless coexistence with standard IEEE 802.11 clients, protecting best-effort 802.11 traffic from starvation by means of admission control po...
متن کاملMulti-Faceted Assessment of a Wireless Communications Infrastructure for the Green Neighborhoods of the Smart Grid
Reducing electricity consumption and integrating renewable power generation sources represent two of the main drivers of the so-called Smart Grid. Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communications will play a key role on making such a Smart Grid a reality, since they will enable the required bidirectional real-time bulk information exchange. However, communications for the Smart Grid present specific req...
متن کاملMulti-channel Medium Access Control Protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks: A Survey
Extensive researches on Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have been performed and many techniques have been developed for the data link (MAC) layer. Most of them assume single-channel MAC protocols. In the usual dense deployment of the sensor networks, single-channel MAC protocols may be deficient because of radio collisions and limited bandwidth. Hence, using multiple channels can significantly ...
