IEEE 802.11 Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) is one of the most widely deployed wireless network technologies in the world today. However, 802.11 MAC algorithm is unable to support modern multimedia applications which require certain level of quality of service (QoS) guarantees in terms of consistent, timely and reliable data transfer. The 802.11e MAC protocol provides extension for adjustment of...
This paper presents a contention adaptation (CA) mechanism to improve the energy efficiency in IEEE 802.11e EDCA. By suspending some transmissions, the proposed EDCA/CA can reduce the number of collisions. Because unnecessary retransmissions are eliminated, the energy consumption is reduced. Extensive simulations have been performed to demonstrate the performance of the proposed EDCA/CA. The results...
