In this paper, performance of IEEE 802.11 carrier-sense multiple access with collision-avoidance (CSMA/CA) protocols in saturated traffic conditions is presented taking into account the impact of imperfect channel sensing. The imperfect channel sensing includes both missed-detection and false alarm and their impact on the performance of IEEE 802.11 is analyzed and expressed as a closed form. To include the imperfect channel sensing at the physical layer, we modified the state transition probabilities of well-known two state Markov process model. Simulation results closely match the theoretical expressions confirming the effectiveness of the proposed model. Based on both theoretical and simulated results, the probability of detection is concluded as a dominant factor for the performance of IEEE 802.11.

IEEE 802.11p is a representative PHY/MAC layer standard in vehicular communications. The performance of IEEE 802.11p based communication systems has been measured in various criterions such as link setup time, error rate, and throughput for the case of one-to-one. In this paper, we measure the performance of IEEE 802.11p based communication systems in large capacity transmission. The performance of large capacity transmission is measured by considering the maximum 32 simultaneous transmission including one-to-one transmission. We consider two transmission schemes, i.e., broadcasting and unicasting, and the performance is represented as the receiving rate and throughput.

According to the convenience and efficiency, IEEE 802.11 WLAN(Wireless LAN) has became rapidly wide-spread on the market. However, QoS support is needed for various multimedia service. In this paper, we consider both MAC method of IEEE 802.11 and IEEE 802.11e and Traffic Category differentiated service by QoS support method. In addition, we study currently existing back-off algorithms in view of comparative analysis. As a result we propose a new back-off algorithm called Collision Rate Based-EDCF. The proposed back-off algorithm confirms the performance by computer simulations in terms of Throughput, and QoS support.

The WAVE specification, which for the Next-Generation ITS environment is a common title: IEEE 802.11p and IEEE P1609 specifications. These days, there are many activities for researching WAVE specification by release of the IEEE 802.11p specification. The difference between high-speed vehicle environment and the indoor environment, the wireless communication channel mode is that much more severe. Thus, the wireless communication system design, temperature, noise, multipath fading and can degrade the performance of the system points should be fully considered matters of. In this paper, we showed WAVE wireless communication system which based on IEEE 802.11p PHY/MAC design process, and also showed solving process many implementation problems.

This paper provides the performance measurement and analysis of Wireless LAN IEEE 802.11 in a mobile environment. The performance of IEEE802.11b/g and IEEE802.11p that is designed for Vehicle-to-Vehicle(V2V) communication is measured and analyzed. Diameter of communication, link access time and delay are measured as vehicle's speed varies. Also, the performance is checked in a situation that the load to network varies. In conclusion, the futher research topics are discussed.

Wireless LANs based on the IEEE 802.11 standard are widely spread for use nowadays. Traffic which are conveyed over the WLANs change rapidly from normal data such a Email and Web pages, to multimedia data of high resolution video and voice. To meet QoS (Quality of Service) required by these multimedia traffic, the IEEE 802 committee recently has developed a new standard, IEEE 802.11e. IEEe 802.11.e contains two MAC mechanisms for providing QoS: EDCA(Enhanced Distributed Channel Access) and HCCA (HCF Controlled Channel Access). Using these standardized MAC mechanisms as a building platform, various admission control mechanisms can be combined to offer QoS gurantees for multimedia traffic. This paper surveys these research efforts.

A lot of works on the throughput analysis of the IEEE 802.11 DCF have been studied since last few years. However, we should predict the throughput of the IEEE 802.11g that we mostly use today because the existing numerical results do not consider exactly the IEEE 802.11g with the physical layer ERP-OFDM parameters. In particular, we might have different results in the working WLAN s compared with the simple predictions of the throughput using the previous results. In this paper, we directly monitor the ERP-OFDM physical layer parameters on the operating WLANs, and then analyze the saturated DCF throughput with the well-known analytic model. Moreover, we measure the bandwidth utilization on the real WLANs working with FTP services, and then compare them with the analytic results. According to the experiment results, we confirm the usefulness of the analytic models which assume the saturated traffic sources.

The IEEE 802.11 standard has been used for wireless data networks such as wireless LAN, ad-hoc network, and vehicular ad-hoc network. Thus, the performance analysis of the IEEE 802.11 specification has been one of the hottest issues for network optimization and resource management. Most of the analysis studies were performed in a data plane of the IEEE 802.11 unicast. However, IEEE 802.11 broadcast is widely used for topology management, path management, and data dissemination. Thus, it is important to understand the performance of the broadcast scheme for the design of efficient wireless data network. In this contort, we analyze the IEEE 802.11 broadcast scheme in terms of the broadcast frame reception probability according to the distance from a sending node. Unlike the other works, our analysis framework includes not only the system parameters of the IEEE 802.11 specification such as transmission range, data rate, minimum contention window but also the networking environments such as the number of nodes, network load, and the radio propagation environments. Therefore, our analysis framework is expected to be used for the development of protocols and algorithms in a dynamic wireless data network.

IEEE 802.11 WLAN(Wireless Local Area Network) standard is currently developing with increased wireless internet demand. Study trends of IEEE 802.11n for high throughput show two aspects, enhanced system throughput using aggregation among packets in MAC(Medium Access Control) layer, and better data rates adapting MIMO(Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) in PRY(Physical) layer. But, no one demonstrates IEEE 802.11n system performance results considering MAC and PRY connection. This paper adapts A-MPDU(Aggregation-MAC Protocol Data Unit) method in MAC layer and MIMO in PRY layer for IEEE 802.11n system. Consequently, Simulation results show enhanced throughput and data rates compared to existing system. Also, We use NS-2(Network Simulator-2) considering MAC and PRY connection for reality.

The use of femtocells in buildings and homes has been widely studied as a means to enlarge the cell coverage and increase the network capacity of mobile communication systems. Femtocells for Mobile WiMAX (M-WiMAX) using time division duplexing (TDD) requires frame synchronization with neighboring base stations to avoid interference between uplink and downlink signals. In this paper, we propose a new frame synchronization method for femtocell using IEEE 802.11 based wireless backhaul, which transfers the time information of mobile network to femtocells via the beacon signal provided by IEEE 802.11. Also, in order to reduce timing error of the proposed method, we modify the collision avoidance scheme in the transmitter of IEEE 802.11 and apply a timing estimation technique designed in the sense of least squares to the receiver of IEEE 802.11. Through computer simulations using the proposed scheme, we evaluate the performance of frame synchronization for femtocells and show that the recovered timing information satisfies the timing specification defined by M-WiMAX standard.
