Video multicast over wireless local area networks (WLANs) faces many challenges due to varying channel conditions and limited bandwidth. A promising solution to this problem is the use of packet level forward error correction (FEC) mechanisms. However, the adjustment of the FEC rate is not a trivial issue due to the dynamic wireless environment. This decision becomes more complicated if we consider...
In this paper, we study the cross-layer (between MAC and PHY) design problem for IEEE 802.11 wireless networks. It is focused on the design of the optimal length of the frame body. The following results are obtained: 1) The optimal length of the frame body in logarithmic scale, expressed as log Lf,opt, can be coarsely approximated by a linear function of the signal-to-noise power ratio (SNR) Eb/N0...
An analytically solvable mathematical model is presented for an IEEE 802.11 network, where two terminals, both visible to an access point but not to each other, contend for the channel. This situation, known as the hidden node topology, has been identified as a key reason for the degradation of the protocol's performance. It is shown that the renewal theory, the analytical tool used traditionally,...
