In this paper we present an analysis of the protocol IEEE 802.11b in different environments.
Its performance in an indoor environment is evaluated, in terms of throughput and transmission delay, and the influence of the beacon period is analyzed. On the other hand, a possible technique to improve the throughput and transmission delay is exposed, and the importance of the contention windows value is studied to improve performance in presence of asymmetric data traffic. Finally the protocols characteristics in outdoors environments are explained and its performance is studied, in terms of throughput and transmission delay. |
