Abstract :
The IEEE 802.11 protocol has achieved worldwide acceptance with WLANs. In order to maximize the throughput, we must spend lots of time to find out the best contention window. In this paper, we proposed a model to derive the optimal contention window to maximize the throughput for a given network scale. In addition, we analyzed the access delay of the model.
