The impact of transmission overheads on IEEE 802.11 throughput: analysis and simulation

While various factors affecting the performance of a typical IEEE 802.11 DCF ("DCF") medium access control (MAC) protocol, transmission overhead is one of the main causes of DCF MAC inefficiency. This paper provides an analysis of DCF overhead to show that the network throughput degrades s...
