Throughput Analysis of IEEE 802.11e Enhanced Distributed Channel Access (EDCA) under Unsaturated Condition in One-hop Ad Hoc Networks

摘要

With the previous proposed G/G/1 model, this paper analyzed the throughput expression in an unsaturated 802.11e one-hop ad hoc network. The expression is validated and the throughput performance is discussed by the simulations. The throughput expression derived in this paper will provide a way to analyze the impact of major QoS specific features on the throughput and hence can improve the performance of the network.
