In this paper, we consider the problem of modelling the average delay experienced by a packet in a single cell IEEE 802.11 DCF wireless local area network. The packet arrival process at each node i is assumed to be Poisson with rate parameter . Since the nodes are sharing a single channel, they have to contend with one another for a successful transmission. The mean delay for a packet has been approximated by modelling the system as a 1-limited Random Polling system with zero switchover time. We show that even for non-homogeneous packet arrival processes, the mean delay of packets across the queues are same and depends on the system utilization factor and the aggregate throughput of the MAC. Extensive simulations are conducted to verify the analytical results.
Our objective is to explore the use of known results for the network and in analyzing the mean delay experienced by a packet. We propose a random polling system framework to analyze mean delay in a single cell wireless local area network. We obtain closed form expressions for mean delay by applying results from @cite_10 to our random polling system framework. We show though simulations that our random polling framework can be used to estimate the mean delay in a single cell IEEE 802.11 wireless local area network in the entire capacity region.

Accurate analytical expressions of delay and packet reception probabilities, and energy consumption of duty-cycled wireless sensor networks with random medium access control (MAC) are instrumental for the efficient design and optimization of these resource-constrained networks. Given a clustered network topology with unslotted IEEE 802.15.4 and preamble sampling MAC, a novel approach to the modeling of the delay, reliability, and energy consumption is proposed. The challenging part in such a modeling is the random MAC and sleep policy of the receivers, which prevents to establish the exact time of data packet transmission. The analysis gives expressions as function of sleep time, listening time, traffic rate and MAC parameters. The analytical results are then used to optimize the duty cycle of the nodes and MAC protocol parameters. The approach provides a significant reduction of the energy consumption compared to existing solutions in the literature. Monte Carlo simulations by ns2 assess the validity of the analysis. Future 5G cellular networks supporting delay-sensitive, low-latency communications could employ random access communication to reduce the overhead compared to scheduled access techniques used in 4G networks. We consider a wireless communication system where multiple devices transmit payloads of a given fixed size in a random access fashion over shared radio resources to a common receiver. We allow retransmissions and assume Chase combining at the receiver. The radio resources are partitioned in the time and frequency dimensions, and we determine the optimal partition granularity to maximize throughput, subject to given constraints on latency and outage. In the regime of high and low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), we derive explicit expressions for the granularity and throughput, first using a Shannon capacity approximation and then using finite block length analysis. Numerical results show that the throughput scaling results are applicable over a range of SNRs. The proposed analytical framework can provide insights for resource allocation strategies in reliable and delay-sensitive random access systems and in specific 5G use cases for massive, short packet uplink access. In this paper, we consider the problem of modelling the average delay in an IEEE 802.11 DCF wireless mesh network with a single root node under light traffic. We derive expression for mean delay for a co-located wireless mesh network, when packet generation is homogeneous Poisson process with rate λ. We also show how our analysis can be extended for non-homogeneous Poisson packet generation. We model mean delay by decoupling queues into independent M M 1 queues. Extensive simulations are conducted to verify the analytical results. This thesis presents models for the performance analysis of a recent communication paradigm: mobile ad hoc networking. The objective of mobile ad hoc networking is to provide wireless connectivity between stations in a highly dynamic environment. These dynamics are driven by the mobility of stations and by breakdowns of stations, and may lead to temporary disconnectivity of parts of the network. Applications of this novel paradigm can be found in telecommunication services, but also in manufacturing systems, road-traffic control, animal monitoring and emergency networking. The performance of mobile ad hoc networks in terms of buffer occupancy and delay is quantified in this thesis by employing specific queueing models, viz., time-limited polling models. These polling models capture the uncontrollable characteristic of link availability in mobile ad hoc networks. Particularly, a novel, so-called pure exponential time-limited, service discipline is introduced in the context of polling systems. The highlighted performance characteristics for these polling systems include the stability, the queue lengths and the sojourn times of the customers. Stability conditions prescribe limits on the amount of tra±c that can be sustained by the system, so that the establishment of these conditions is a fundamental keystone in the analysis of polling models. Moreover, both exact and approximate analysis is presented for the queue length and sojourn time in time-limited polling systems with a single server. These exact analytical techniques are extended to multi-server polling systems operating under the pure time-limited service discipline. Such polling systems with multiple servers effectively may reflect large communication networks with multiple simultaneously active links, while the systems with a single server represent performance models for small networks in which a single communication link can be active at a time.
