Optimal Control of Contention Windows for the Number of Stations in IEEE 802.11 DCF

This paper proposes an algorithm that maximize the performance of the Distributed Coordination Function(DCF), the MAC protocol used in IEEE 802.11 WLAN, according to the number of stations. The standard DCF algorithm, which adopts a random backoff mechanism, may suffer from performance degradations especially when data traffic surges or declines r<span style=color:#999999 > ... </span><a href=javascript:; onclick=onClickReadNode('NODE12077545');fn_statistics('Z354','null','null'); style='color:#999999;font-size:14px;text-decoration:underline;' >전체 초록 보기</a>
