Abstract:
|
Unlike in IEEE 802.11, the CSMA/CA traffic conditions in IEEE 802.15.3 are typically unsaturated. This paper presents an extended analytical model based on Bianchi?? model in IEEE 802.11, by taking into account the device suspending events, unsaturated traffic conditions, as well as the effects of error-prone channels. Based on this model we re-derive a closed form expression of the average service time. The accuracy of the model is validated through extensive simulations. The analysis is also instructional for IEEE 802.11 networks under limited load.
