Type: White Paper
Rating: (0)

Overview: Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN’s) using the IEEE 802.11 standard are now in widespread use. As in the wider Internet, the large bulk of traffic on a typical WLAN consists of applications such as web browsing that are carried over the TCP transport protocol. This paper, analyzes the throughput of TCP, as a function of the number of flows, when transmitted over an IEEE 802.11 WLAN. There have been a number of important models developed for predicting the performance of WLANs using the 802.11 MAC protocol.
