Performance Analysis of IEEE 802.11 Non-Saturated DCF

چکیده
In the IEEE 802.11MAC layer protocol, the basic access method is the Distributed Coordination Function which is based on the CSMA/CA. In this paper, we investigate the performance of IEEE 802.11 DCF in the non-saturation condition. We assume that there is a fixed number n of competing stations and packet arrival process to a station is a poisson process. We model IEEE 802.11 DCF in non-saturation mode by 3-dimensional Markov chain and derive the stationary distribution of the Markov chain by applying matrix analytic method. We obtain the probability generating function of packet service time and access delay, and throughput.

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...
متن کاملComputation of the Performance Analysis of IEEE 802.11 DCF in Non-Saturation Condition
The MAC performance of IEEE 802.11 DCF and the IEEE 802.11e EDCA is analyzed in nonsaturated condition which means sometimes the device does not have a packet for transmission. In this paper we assume that there is no generation of flow while the previous flow is in service and the number of packets in flow is geometrically distributed. In the non-saturated condition, the first packet arriving ...
متن کاملA Novel Performance Analysis of the IEEE 802.11 DCF in the presence of Hidden Stations
IEEE 802.11 is the most popular standard used in WLAN. Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) is one of the channel-access methods in the IEEE 802.11 Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol. However, It has not been adequately studied under the existence of hidden stations. In the paper, we present the novel saturated throughput analysis of the IEEE 802.11 DCF in the presence of hidden stations. ...

The crucial contribution of the paper is the novel saturated throughput analysis of the IEEE 802.11 Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) in the presence of hidden stations. This approach involves a novel analytical model that is an extension to previous works by other authors which provide Markov chain analysis to IEEE 802.11 DCF. Hidden stations cause most collisions because stations cannot...
