Goodput and throughput comparison of single‐hop and multi‐hop routing for IEEE 802.11 DCF‐based wireless networks under hidden terminal existence

We investigate how multi‐hop routing affects the goodput and throughput performances of IEEE 802.11 distributed coordination function‐based wireless networks compared with direct transmission (single hopping), when medium access control dynamics such as carrier sensing, collisions, retransmissions, and exponential backoff are taken into account under hidden terminal presence. We propose a semi‐Markov chain‐based goodput and throughput model for IEEE 802.11‐based wireless networks, which works accurately with both multi‐hopping and single hopping for different network topologies and over a large range of traffic loads. Results show that, under light traffic, there is little benefit of parallel transmissions and both single‐hop and multi‐hop routing achieve the same end‐to‐end goodput. Under moderate traffic, concurrent transmissions are favorable as multi‐hopping improves the goodput up to 730% with respect to single hopping for dense networks. At heavy traffic, multi‐hopping becomes unstable because of increased packet collisions and network congestion, and single‐hopping achieves higher network layer goodput compared with multi‐hop routing. As for the link layer throughput is concerned, multi‐hopping increases throughput 75 times for large networks, whereas single hopping may become advantageous for small networks. The results point out that the end‐to‐end goodput can be improved by adaptively switching between single hopping and multi‐hopping according to the traffic load and topology.

A smart exponential‐threshold‐linear backoff mechanism for IEEE 802.11 WLANs

Based on the standardized IEEE 802.11 Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) protocol, this paper proposes a new backoff mechanism, called Smart Exponential‐Threshold‐Linear (SETL) Backoff Mechanism, to enhance the system performance of contention‐based wireless networks. In the IEEE 802.11 DCF scheme, the smaller contention window (CW) will increase the collision probability, but the larger CW will delay the transmission. Hence, in the proposed SETL scheme, a threshold is set to determine the behavior of CW after each transmission. When the CW is smaller than the threshold, the CW of a competing station is exponentially adjusted to lower collision probability. Conversely, if the CW is larger than the threshold, the CW size is tuned linearly to prevent large transmission delay. Through extensive simulations, the results show that the proposed SETL scheme provides a better system throughput and lower collision rate in both light and heavy network loads than the related backoff algorithm schemes, including Binary Exponential Backoff (BEB), Exponential Increase Exponential Decrease (EIED) and Linear Increase Linear Decrease (LILD).

Cross‐Layer Resource Allocation Scheme for WLANs with Multipacket Reception

Tailored for wireless local area networks, the present paper proposes a cross‐layer resource allocation scheme for multiple‐input multiple‐output orthogonal frequency‐division multiplexing systems. Our cross‐layer resource allocation scheme consists of three stages. Firstly, the condition of sharing the subchannel by more than one user is studied. Secondly, the subchannel allocation policy which depends on the data packets’ lengths and the admissible combination of users per subchannel is proposed. Finally, the bits and corresponding power are allocated to users based on a greedy algorithm and the data packets’ lengths. The analysis and simulation results demonstrate that our proposed scheme not only achieves significant improvement in system throughput and average packet delay compared with conventional schemes but also has low computational complexity.
