Interactions Between TCP and the IEEE 802.11 MAC Protocol
The IEEE 802.11x MAC protocol, the de facto standard for wireless LANs, includes a distributed coordination function (DCF) mode usable for ad hoc network architectures. The Transm...

Distributed Fair Scheduling Using Variable Transmission Lengths in Carrier-Sensing-based Wireless Networks
— The fairness of IEEE 802.11 wireless networks (including Wireless LAN and Ad-hoc networks) is hard to predict and control because of the randomness and complexity of the MAC co...
