Abstract :
In a wireless network the communication works in half duplex mode and nodes that can interfere together. In this context, fairness is not obvious. This paper will focus on fairness in the received packets by each node. Fairness is evaluated for a static network topology called Star Network. Some simulations are used to illustrate a way to get fairness in the network by controlling the flow rates of the network.
