CSMA/CA 기반 무선 네트워크에서 장치들은 패킷 충돌을 회피하기 위해 무선 채널을 타 장치가 사용 중인 것을 감지하면 데이터를 전송하지 않고 대기 (Backoff) 한다. 이 Backoff는 Contention Window (CW) 의 크기를 변경하고 Backoff 시간은 이 CW의 크기에 따라 확률적으로 결정된다. 따라서 CW의 크기는 무선 네트워크의 상태를 나타내는 중요한 지표가 될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 상대적으로 넓은 공간에서 IEEE 802.11a 무선네트워크의 Access Point와 사용자들이 Poisson point process (PPP)를 기반으로 분포되어 Hidden Terminal이 존재할 수 있는 상황에서 CW의 크기 변화를 시뮬레이션을 통해 분석한다.

This paper proposes a centralized backoff control scheme for guaranteeing fair packet transmissions in S-ALOHA CDMA system. In S-ALOHA CDMA system, simultaneously transmitted packets act as multiple access interferences, so that unsuccessful packet transmissions are caused entirely by multiple access interferences. Therefore, in order to maximize the system performance, the levels of MAI should be kept at an optimal level. In the proposed scheme, the base station broadcasts the packet transmission probability, which is calculated based on the level of MAI. Mobile stations attempt to transmit their packet with the received probability. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme can guarantee a good fairness among all the mobile stations.

In this paper, under saturated traffic condition in a single-hop wireless sensor network, we present an analytic model that evaluates the performance of asynchronous MAC protocol which uses a preamble technique. Our model considers the impact of several important factors such as sleep cycle, the backoff mechanism and the number of contending nodes. After obtaining the cumulative backoff time of a sending node and expected delay of a receiving node, an iterative algorithm is presented for calculating the performance measures such as expected energy consumption usage per packet and latency. Simulation results show that the proposed analytic model can accurately estimate the performance measures under saturated traffic conditions.

본 논문에서는 IEEE 802.11 WLAN의 MAC인 DCF의 성능을 개선하는 알고리즘을 제안하고 이를 시뮬레이션으로 분석한다. IEEE 802.11 WLAN의 MAC에서는 데이터 전송을 제어하기 위한 방법으로 DCF와 PCF를 사용하며, DCF의 경우 CSMA/CA를 기반으로 한다. CSMA/CA는 스테이션간의 충돌을 줄이기 위해서 임의의 Backoff time을 각 스테이션의 CW(Contention Window) 범위에서 결정한다. 스테이션은 패킷 전송 후 충돌이 발생하면, 윈도우 크기를 두 배로 증가시키며, 패킷을 성공적으로 전송하면 윈도우 크기를 최소 CW로 감소한다. DCF는 경쟁 스테이션이 적은 상황에서는 비교적 우수한 성능을 보이나 경쟁 스테이션의 수가 많은 경우 처리율, 지연 관점에서 성능이 저하되는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 패킷 전송 후 충돌이 발생하면 윈도우 값을 최대 CW로 증가시키고 패킷의 정상적인 전송 후에는 윈도우 값을 서서히 감소함으로써 현재 WLAN의 망 상태정보를 계속 활용함으로써 패킷 충돌 확률을 낮추는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안하는 알고리즘의 효율성을 입증하기 위해 시뮬레이션을 수행하여 그 타당성을 제시하였다.

Random access method for Wibro system is proposed using the Bayesian Technique, which can estimate the number of bandwidth request messages in a frame only based on the number of successful slots. The performance measures such as the maximum average throughput, the mean delay time and the collision ratio are investigated to evaluate the performance of the proposed method. The proposed method shows better performance than the binary exponential backoff algorithm used currently.

A basic access method using for IEEE 802.11a wireless LANs is the DCF method that is based on the CSMA/CA. But, Since IEEE 802.11 MAC layer uses original backoff algorithm (Exponential backoff method), when collision occurs, the size of contention windows increases the double size. Hence, packet transmission delay time increases and efficiency is decreased by original backoff scheme. In this paper, we have analyzed TCP packet transmission time of IEEE 802.11 MAC DCF protocol for wireless LANs using a proposed enhanced backoff algorithm. From the results, in OFDM/quadrature phase shift keying channel (QPSK), we can achieve that the transmission time in wireless channel decreases as the TCP packet size increases and based on the data collected, we can infer the correlation between TCP packet size and total message transmission time, allowing for an inference of the optimal packet size in the TCP layer.

This paper addresses the collision resolution issue to enhance the performance of wireless sensor networks based on IEEE 802.15.4 slotted CSMA/CA. Some solutions in existing work try to solve this issue by adjusting Backoff Exponent (BE) value or Backoff Period (BP). In contrast to the existing solutions, the proposed scheme in this paper aims at providing high system throughput, but also achieving efficient energy consumption of sensor nodes by using Preamble Address (PA). For this, in the proposed scheme, only one sensor node begins data packet transmission by performing PA contention phase with other nodes before sending each data packet. Our simulation results show that the proposed scheme outperforms existing algorithms in terms of energy consumption and throughput.

In this paper, we propose a scheme that tunes the backoff period for enhancing the system throughput with estimating the number of devices in IEEE 802.15.4 slotted carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance (CSMA/CA) networks. Since each device does not sense the channel always in IEEE 802.15.4 slotted CSMA/CA networks, a personal area network (PAN) coordinator is used to estimate the number of active devices. The PAN coordinator broadcasts an optimal backoff period for the estimated number of devices through a beacon frame. In order to estimate the number of devices in run time, a simple moving average filter is utilized. We show the performance of our proposed scheme in terms of the estimated number of devices and the system throughput. The simulation results show that our proposed scheme can obtain higher system throughput than the IEEE 802.15.4 standard.

There have been many studies on IEEE 802.15.4 for home area networks(HAN) in Smart Grids. Existing unslotted or slotted IEEE 802.15.4 has almost not met strict conditions of the U.S. Department Of Energy(DOE). This study proposed a improved algorithm that reduces collisions, delay time and changes in the delay time. For this purpose, numbers were given to nodes to make the transmission in the order of the node numbers. Since the probability of the occurrence of collisions would decrease compared to random transmission if the nodes were given numbers, Backoff time was set at 0. In the proposed Numbered-Unslotted-ZeroBackoff algorithm, when the packet size was 133 octets and less than 180 packets per second occurred, it was found that packet delivery ratio was over 99.99%, and that all the maximum delay, the mean delay and the minimum delay were less than 0.02 seconds. This paper could confirm that the algorithm proposed in this study met the strict conditions of the DOE.
