Improving the throughput of Ad-Hoc Wireless LANs by IEEE802.11 DCF function protocol

摘要

In wireless research, one of the issues that need to be addressed is increasing the throughput of the network. This paper first compares the throughput of different scheduling algorithms; IEEE 802.11, CSMA/CA and CSMA/CD. Secondly, it shows how by changing the value of time slots that is taken by a frame, from 10 to 40, the throughput performance of the IEEE 802.11/DCF function will increase to 13.45%. The algorithms were modeled by Matlab and Markov chain rules.
