초록

Point Coordination Function (PCF) of the IEEE 802.11 protocol providing a centrally-controlled polling-based multiple access to a wireless channel is very efficient in high load conditions. However, its performance degrades with increasing the number of terminals and decreasing the load, because of wastes related to unsuccessful polling attempts. To solve the problem, we propose and study analytically the generic dynamic polling policy using backoff concept. For this aim, we develop Markov models describing the network queues changes, what allows us to estimate such performance measures as the average MAC service time and the average MAC sojourn time, to show the dynamic polling efficiency and to tune optimally the backoff rule.
