Leng, Xiang Bai","doi":"10.1109/WNIS.2009.83","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/WNIS.2009.83","url":null,"abstract":"In an IEEE 802.11 multirate network, the aggregate system throughput is unfavorably dominated by stations with the lowest data rate. To improve the performance, it is required to provide airtime fairness for stations regardless of their data rates. Unfortunately, the IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol DCF (Distributed Coordination Function) fails to satisfy this requirement. In this paper, we propose an adaptive MAC scheme, named Time Fairness Transmission Control (TFTC), to maximize the system throughput while maintaining airtime fairness among the competing stations. Specifically, making use of the information provided to each station by the carrier sensing mechanism, TFTC dynamically adjusts the transmission probabilities for stations transmitting at each data rate. As opposed to the previous works, our proposed scheme has strong ability to lead the network to work under near optimal state without the requirement of estimating the number of active stations in the network. Performance evaluation results show that the scheme is effective in achieving near to the theoretical maximum system throughput and providing time fair channel allocation among stations with different data rates.","PeriodicalId":280001,"journal":{"name":"2009 International Conference on Wireless Networks and Information Systems","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126099489","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It can easily be generalized and put to practical use. In this paper, a fault classifier based on support vector machine (SVM) is proposed for analog circuits. It can classify the faults in the target circuit effectively and accurately. In order to test the algorithm, an analog circuit fault diagnosis system based on SVM is designed for the measurement circuit that approximates the square curve with a broken line. After being trained with practical measurement data, the system is shown to be capable of diagnosing faults hidden in real measurement data accurately. Therefore, the effectiveness of the algorithm is verified.","PeriodicalId":280001,"journal":{"name":"2009 International Conference on Wireless Networks and Information Systems","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126857025","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
