A New Cooperative MAC Protocol for Wireless LANs
This paper introduces a new cooperative MAC-protocol for wireless LANs. This scheme is totally compatible with the legacy systems and leverages the multi-rate capability of IEEE systems. The proposed protocol is evaluated via theoretical analysis and the result shows a throughput improvement using the same physical layer as in IEEE802.11b.
متن کاملReliable multicast MAC protocol for wireless LANs
Reliable multicast in wireless applications is gaining importance with the development in technology. Applications like multicast file transfer, distributed computing, chat and whiteboard applications need reliability. However, due to mobility and wireless channel characteristics, obtaining reliability in data transfer is a difficult and challenging task. IEEE 802.11 does not support reliable m...
متن کاملA neural-based MAC protocol for distributed wireless LANs
A a self-adaptive neural-based MAC protocol for distributed wireless LANs, capable of operating efficiently under bursty traffic conditions, is introduced. According to the proposed protocol, the mobile station that is granted permission to transmit is selected by means of a neural-based algorithm. The neural-based algorithm takes into account the network feedback information in order to update...
متن کاملA multichannel relay MAC protocol for IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs
One of the challenging issues in wireless LANs (WLANs) is improving the network throughput. One of the possible solutions for the issue is maximizing the number of concurrent transmissions. Although some protocols have been proposed to exploit transmission concurrency in WLANs, their performance depends on the degree of the interference among links. Also, it is hard to obtain interference infor...
متن کاملAn Energy Efficient MAC Protocol for Wireless LANs
This paper presents an optimization of the power saving mechanism in the Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) in IEEE 802.11 standard. In the 802.11 power saving mode specified for DCF, time is divided into so-called beacon intervals. At the start of each beacon interval, each node in the power saving mode periodically wakes up for a duration called the ATIM Window. The nodes are required to...
