Throughput Analysis of CSMA: Technical Report
share
In this technical report, the throughput performance of CSMA networks with two representative receiver structures, i.e., the collision model and the capture model, is characterized and optimized. The analysis is further applied to an IEEE 802.11 network, which is a representative wireless network that adopts the CSMA mechanism, where the optimal initial backoff window sizes of nodes to achieve the maximum network throughput are derived and verified against simulation results.
