Idle sense: an optimal access method for high throughput and fairness in rate diverse wireless LANs
We consider wireless LANs such as IEEE 802.11 operating in the unlicensed radio spectrum. While their nominal bit rates have increased considerably, the MAC layer remains practica...

Distributed Multi-User Scheduling for Improving Throughput of Wireless LAN
Carrier Sense Multi-Access (CSMA) is a typical method to share the common channel in a Wireless LAN (WLAN). It works fairly well in times of light traffic. However as the number of...
