Abstract

There has been huge interest in evaluation of 802.11 networks particularly DCF in recent past among research community. Various analytical models had been proposed for evaluating the performance analysis of 802.11 DCF. These models are based on traffic conditions i.e. either network operates in saturated conditions or non-saturated conditions. In this paper we compare analytical models proposed by Binanchi, Wu et. al. and Chatzimisios et. al. for networks that work under saturated conditions. We have taken throughput as parameter for evaluation purpose. The aim is to acquaint ourselves with mathematical development of these models and redesign these models to provide accurate behavior of IEEE 802.11.
