چکیده
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 ad hoc networks. The model is verified using simulations, and it is shown that the model is extremely accurate.

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.

Being a part of IEEE project 802, the 802.11 Medium Access Control(MAC) is used to support asynchronous and time bounded delivery of radio data packets. It is proposed that a Distributed Coordination Function(DCF), which uses Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA) and binary slotted exponential backoff, be the basis of the IEEE 802.11 WLAN MAC protocols.

This paper investigates saturation and finite load throughputs of distributed coordinated function (DCF) as specified IEEE 802.11 wireless local area network (WLAN) protocol in presence of hidden stations. To study throughput of IEEE DCF, we extend Tobagi and Kleinrock’s hidden terminal model [1] and incorporate it into Bianchi’s Markov model of DCF [2]. We use the latter model to derive a gene...

The basis of the Medium Access Control (MAC), proposed in IEEE 802.11 standard for wireless local area networks, is the Distributed Coordination Function (DCF). DCF uses Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA) to resolve contention between wireless stations and to verify successful transmissions. In this work we present an analytical model of the IEEE 802.11 MAC protoco...
