T2-fair: a two-tiered time and throughput fair scheduler for multi-rate WLANs
MSWiM '06: Proceedings of the 9th ACM international symposium on Modeling analysis and simulation of wireless and mobile systemsLow throughput due to unfairness is a key problem in multi-rate wireless local area networks. To promote fairness and hence throughput, T2-Fair groups flows according to their average data rate, provides each group fair time allocations and ensures ...
Can CSMA/CA networks be made fair?
MobiCom '08: Proceedings of the 14th ACM international conference on Mobile computing and networkingWe demonstrate that CSMA/CA networks, including IEEE 802.11 networks, exhibit severe fairness problem in many scenarios, where some hosts obtain most of the channel's bandwidth while others starve. Most existing solutions require nodes to overhear ...
Proportional fair throughput allocation in multirate IEEE 802.11e wireless LANs
Under heterogeneous radio conditions, Wireless LAN stations may use different modulation schemes, leading to a heterogeneity of bit rates. In such a situation, 802.11 DCF allocates the same throughput to all stations independently of their transmitting ...
