Multiple access in ad-hoc wireless LANs with noncooperative stations

Abstract

A class of contention-type MAC protocols (e.g., CSMA/CA) relies on random deferment of packet transmission, and subsumes a deferment selection strategy and a scheduling policy that determines the winner of each contention cycle. This paper examines contention-type protocols in a noncooperative an ad-hoc wireless LAN setting, where a number of stations self-optimise their strategies to obtain a more-than-fair bandwidth share. Two scheduling policies, called RT/ECD and RT/ECD-1s, are evaluated via simulation It is concluded that a well-designed scheduling policy should invoke a noncooperative game whose outcome, in terms of the resulting bandwidth distribution, is fair to non-self-optimising stations.
