A finite-source feedback queueing network as a model for the IEEE 802.11 Distributed Coordination Function
نویسنده
چکیده
The most mature medium access control protocol for wireless local area networks is the IEEE 802.11 standard. The primary access mode of this protocol is based on the mechanism of carrier sense multiple access with binary exponential backoff. We develop a finite-source feedback queueing model for this access mode. In this model we derive expressions for the throughput and the first moment of the delay and a set of equations to compute the Laplace Stieltjes Transform and higher moments of the delay. The accuracy of the model is verified by simulation. keywords: IEEE 802.11 protocol, multiple access control, distributed coordination function, quality-of-service, machine repair model with feedback

An Improved Analytical Model for IEEE 802.11 Distributed Coordination Function under Finite Load
In this paper, an improved analytical model for IEEE 802.11 distributed coordination function (DCF) under finite load is proposed by closely following the specifications given in IEEE 802.11 standard. The model is investigated in terms of channel throughput under perfect and slow Rayleigh fading channels. It is shown that the proposed model gives better insight into the operation of DCF.

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...

In this paper, we present an analytic model for evaluating the queueing delays at nodes using the IEEE 802.11 Point Coordination Function (PCF) MAC for real time, delay sensitive traffic. We develop a queueing model for each node to obtain closed form expressions for the expected delay which accounts for arbitrary packet sizes, polling rates, channel rates and the order in which the nodes are p...
متن کاملA Finite Load Analytical Model for the IEEE 802.11 Distributed Coordination Function MAC
Abstract— CSMA/CA protocols such as IEEE 802.11b are considered to be attractive MAC protocols for wireless LANs. In this paper, we extend a saturation throughput model for the IEEE 802.11 Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) MAC protocol to finite loads. The analytical model can help in the optimization of the protocol parameters as well as leading to the performance modeling of multi-hop a...
