Abstract :
In this paper the issue of link adaptation (LA) for IEEE 802.11 WLANs is investigated with emphasis on realistic environments. Different from most of the papers that appeared on this topic, here the impact of collisions on the performance provided by several LA solutions is assessed through accurate simulations. Two original LA solutions are also suggested, which outperform previously proposed strategies
