Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN) are being deployed at a rapid pace and in different environments. As a result, the demand for supporting a diverse range of applications over w...
Abstract—Multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) technique is considered as one of the most promising emerging wireless technologies that can significantly improve transmissio...
—In wireless communication systems, the signal strength/quality generally varies with the distances between transmitters and receivers. As a consequence, the throughput in the MA...
We study a wireless network under the 802.11 random access protocol, supporting multiple physical layer rates. Based on models for the effective packet rates achieved at the MAC ...
The IEEE802.11e defines a MAC protocol, which provides EDCA (enhanced distributed channel access) and HCCA (HCF controlled channel access) to support differentiation service over W...
