Abstract :
An exact approach to analyze the access delay of the media access schemes that employ beamforming to locate users out of the broadcast range of the access point (AP) in a WLAN is put forward. Results show that the scheme which distinguishes the users residing in or out of broadcast range of the AP can provide rapider media access. And then the simulation verifies the proposed approach.
