Abstract
In wireless mesh networks, when a packet is relayed by a station, it can get into collision with another packet of the same flow. This effect is called intra-flow interference. In this paper we propose an analytical model to study the problem of intra-flow interference. Taking into account collisions caused by both neighbor stations and hidden stations, we estimate the saturated throughput of a given flow in the mesh network.
