Analysis and Simulation Model of Physical Carrier Sensing in IEEE 802.11 Mesh Networks
In IEEE 802.11 Wireless Mesh networks, tuning of the Physical Carrier Sensing (PCS) threshold based has been shown to be an efficient way to balance the hidden vs. exposed terminal trade-off and hence improve aggregate network throughput. Clear Channel Assessment (CCA) indicates channel status by comparing the net RF energy with a suitable chosen PCS threshold to control which nodes may attempt...
متن کاملOptimizing 802.11 Wireless Mesh Network Performance Using Physical Carrier Sensing
Multi-hop ad-hoc networks suffer from the presence of hidden and exposed nodes that diminish aggregate network throughput. While there are various approaches to mitigating these problems, in this work we focus exclusively on the role of physical carrier sensing (PCS). Specifically, tuning the PCS threshold leads to a trade-off between the ‘exposed’ and ‘hidden’ areas. The contributions of this ...
متن کاملNumerical Analysis of IEEE 802.11 Broadcast Scheme in Multihop Wireless Ad Hoc Networks
In this paper, we study the performance of IEEE 802.11 broadcast scheme in multihop wireless networks using an analytical model. Previous works have evaluated the performance of IEEE 802.11 protocol assuming unicast communication, but there has not been an analysis considering broadcast communication. Analyzing performance of broadcast communication is important because multicast communication ...
متن کاملImproving spatial reuse of IEEE 802.11 based ad hoc networks
In this paper, we evaluate and suggest methods to improve the performance of IEEE 802.11 based ad hoc networks from the perspective of spatial reuse. Since 802.11 employs virtual carrier sensing to reserve the medium prior to a packet transmission, the relative size of the spatial region it reserves for the impending traffic significantly affects the overall network performance. We show that th...
متن کاملA 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...
