Abstract | ||
An analytical model is presented to evaluate the MAC-protocol performance of the IEEE802.11n-over–fiber network with taking into account probability of error occurring in the transmitting channel. The results show that the data throughput with using RTS/CTS or basic access mechanism is suppressed with increasing amount of errors in the transmitting channel over all the range of fiber delay as well as it is very sensitive to the number of stations and packet length. And utilizing the RTS/CTS mechanism shows higher immunity than basic access mechanism when the network is utilized by high number of users and errors in transmission channel is relatively high. | ||
