Improving Wireless LAN Performance via Adaptive Local Error Control
Wireless links can exhibit high error rates due to attenuation, fading, or interfering active radiation sources. To make matters worse, error rates can be highly variable due to c...

Payload Length and Rate Adaptation for Throughput Optimization in Wireless LANs
— Wireless local area networks offer a range of transmitted data rates that are to be selected according to estimated channel conditions. However, due to packet overheads and con...

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...

A Comparison of Mechanisms for Improving TCP Performance over Wireless Links
Reliable transport protocols such as TCP are tuned to perform well in traditional networks where packet losses occur mostly because of congestion. However, networks with wireless ...
