— Wireless local area networks offer a range of transmitted data rates that are to be selected according to estimated channel conditions. However, due to packet overheads and con...
Carrier Sense Multi-Access (CSMA) is a typical method to share the common channel in a Wireless LAN (WLAN). It works fairly well in times of light traffic. However as the number of...
—With the availability of multiple rates in IEEE 802.11a/b/g wireless LANs, it is desirable to improve the network capacity and temporal fairness by sending multiple consecutive ...

The low price of commodity wireless LAN cards and access points (APs) has resulted in the rich proliferation of high density WLANs in enterprise, academic environments, and public ...
In this paper, we first propose an analytical model of WLANs (Wireless LANs) with an arbitrary backoff distribution and AIFS (Arbitration Inter-Frame Space). From the analysis, we ...
