Paper Abstract:
|
This paper presents an analytical model to calculate the total MAC delay experimented for packets, for stable network conditions. This model considers that each station of the network has an M/G/1 transmission queue. What differences this paper from others is that the total delay is derived directly from the exact service time distribution of a packet of the backoff algorithm, instead of using approximations. The no-saturated channel model relies on the idle time of the station, which is also a new approach that avoids approximations from previous models. Evaluations of this model show that it is in close agreement with simulation results. |
