Unsaturated Throughput Analysis of IEEE 802.11 in Presence of Non Ideal Transmission Channel and Capture Effects
In this paper, we provide a throughput analysis of the IEEE 802.11 protocol
at the data link layer in non-saturated traffic conditions taking into account
the impact of both transmission channel and capture effects in Rayleigh fading
environment. The impact of both non-ideal channel and capture become important
in terms of the actual observed throughput in typical network conditions
whereby traffic is mainly unsaturated, especially in an environment of high
interference.
We extend the multi-dimensional Markovian state transition model
characterizing the behavior at the MAC layer by including transmission states
that account for packet transmission failures due to errors caused by
propagation through the channel, along with a state characterizing the system
when there are no packets to be transmitted in the buffer of a station.
Finally, we derive a linear model of the throughput along with its interval of
validity.
Simulation results closely match the theoretical derivations confirming the
effectiveness of the proposed model.Comment: To appear on IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications, 200
Saturation Throughput Analysis of IEEE 802.11 in Presence of Non Ideal Transmission Channel and Capture Effects
In this paper, we provide a saturation throughput analysis of the IEEE 802.11
protocol at the data link layer by including the impact of both transmission
channel and capture effects in Rayleigh fading environment. Impacts of both
non-ideal channel and capture effects, specially in an environment of high
interference, become important in terms of the actual observed throughput. As
far as the 4-way handshaking mechanism is concerned, we extend the
multi-dimensional Markovian state transition model characterizing the behavior
at the MAC layer by including transmission states that account for packet
transmission failures due to errors caused by propagation through the channel.
This way, any channel model characterizing the physical transmission medium can
be accommodated, including AWGN and fading channels. We also extend the Markov
model in order to consider the behavior of the contention window when employing
the basic 2-way handshaking mechanism.
Under the usual assumptions regarding the traffic generated per node and
independence of packet collisions, we solve for the stationary probabilities of
the Markov chain and develop expressions for the saturation throughput as a
function of the number of terminals, packet sizes, raw channel error rates,
capture probability, and other key system parameters. The theoretical
derivations are then compared to simulation results confirming the
effectiveness of the proposed models.Comment: To appear on IEEE Transactions on Communications, 200

On the Behavior of the Distributed Coordination Function of IEEE 802.11 with Multirate Capability under General Transmission Conditions
The aim of this paper is threefold. First, it presents a multi-dimensional
Markovian state transition model characterizing the behavior of the IEEE 802.11
protocol at the Medium Access Control layer which accounts for packet
transmission failures due to channel errors modeling both saturated and
non-saturated traffic conditions. Second, it provides a throughput analysis of
the IEEE 802.11 protocol at the data link layer in both saturated and
non-saturated traffic conditions taking into account the impact of both the
physical propagation channel and multirate transmission in Rayleigh fading
environment. The general traffic model assumed is M/M/1/K. Finally, it shows
that the behavior of the throughput in non-saturated traffic conditions is a
linear combination of two system parameters; the payload size and the packet
rates, , of each contending station. The validity interval of
the proposed model is also derived.
Simulation results closely match the theoretical derivations, confirming the
effectiveness of the proposed models.Comment: Submitted to IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications, October

MAC Performance Analysis for Drive-Thru Internet Networks with Rayleigh Capture
© 2013 IEEE. In practical radio transmissions, channel capture is a dominating factor that affects wireless network performance. The capture effect can occur in wireless network when packets arrive with different powers. Packets with high power can effectively swamp low power packets, such that they are received successfully, when otherwise a collision would have occurred. We present a vehicular network performance-prediction model for a Rayleigh capture channel in Drive-thru Internet scenario. The model incorporates the capture effect into a 2-D Markov chain modeling the high-node mobility and distributed coordination function broadcast scheme. The performance-prediction model unveils the impacts of mobility velocity and number of vehicles on the throughput in a Rayleigh capture channel. We use a vehicular traffic flow model to predict vehicular movement on road by aggregating all vehicles into a flow. Simulation results confirm that our performance-prediction model accurately predicts the performance of traveling vehicles with Rayleigh capture channel in the Drive-thru Internet scenario. We demonstrate that using our performance-prediction model, we can obtain optimal contention window value, by which the best system throughput can be reached without wasting contention time. This is also proved by Anastasi et al
Interference in vehicle-to-vehicle communication networks - analysis, modeling, simulation and assessment
In wireless vehicular communication networks the periodic transmission of status updates by all vehicles represents a basic service primitive, in particular for safety related applications. Due to the limited communication resources the question raises how much data each node may provide such that the quality of service required by applications can still be guaranteed under realistic interference conditions. Local broadcasts capacity is introduced and analyzed to tackle this open question
Interference Mitigation in Frequency Hopping Ad Hoc Networks
Radio systems today exhibit a degree of flexibility that was unheard of only a few years ago. Software-defined radio architectures have emerged that are able to service large swathes of spectrum, covering up to several GHz in the UHF bands. This dissertation investigates interference mitigation techniques in frequency hopping ad hoc networks that are capable of exploiting the frequency agility of software-defined radio platforms
