Throughput Analysis of IEEE 802.11 WLANs with Inter-Network Interference
APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL(2020)
摘要
Recently, we often see the environment where many one-to-one Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) exist in a small area. In this environment, the network throughput of certain WLAN reduces significantly because of the interference from other networks (i.e., inter-network interference). The inter-network interference is the effect of carrier-sensing activities when there are ongoing transmissions in neighbor networks. This paper presents analytical expressions using airtime concept, which newly take into account the inter-network interference, for network throughputs of WLANs. There are existing works that similarly address the WLAN's carrier-sensing duration. However, they either consider a simple interference model or assume the simultaneous transmission time is negligible. Different from them, we consider the significant impact of simultaneous transmission. As a result, our analytical model can precisely express each network carrier-sensing duration by subtracting the simultaneous transmission time. More specifically, we have successfully obtained each network throughput by expressing frame-existence probabilities concerning each network's End Device (ED). We also confirm the validity of the analysis by comparison with simulation. The analytical results and the simulation results agree well.
