Abstract

Recently, more and more wireless networks have been deployed and start provide varies services to customers. Such as smart-phones integrate heterogeneous wireless devices, it may cause unintended interactions between multiple radios using difference radio access technologies. Thus, heterogeneous wireless network will be the trend of future network. The Co-channel interference problem in heterogeneous wireless networks is more and more important. This paper focus on the coexistence problem between IEEE 802.11b/g/n and IEEE 802.15.4 protocols in the ISM 2.4 GHz band. The performance impact on IEEE 802.15.4 network under IEEE 802.11 wireless network has been analysis, and results show that IEEE 802.15.4 has serious collision problem if there has no appropriate scheduling mechanisms among two wireless protocols. A CIFS (Coexistence Inter-Frame Space) has been proposed in this paper to effectively enhance the IEEE 802.15.4 transmission probability which is implemented in IEEE 802.11 nodes to observe the transmission opportunity for IEEE 802.15.4 under wireless coexistence environment.
