Abstract

We consider the problem of improving network capacity in wireless mesh networks from the angle of multi-flow diversity. As consecutive packets on a multihop path can interfere with one another within their interference range, the number of concurrent transmissions is limited, thereby degrading throughput performance. This intra-flow interference can be alleviated by enhancing multi-flow diversity in wireless mesh networks. Hence, we propose the use of a fair queueing policy to evenly distribute the traffic load to achieve fair bandwidth allocation among the flows. Through ns-2 simulations we subsequently show that CHOKe can effectively reduce intra-flow interference and improve throughput performance.

Intra-flow interference study in IEEE 802.11s mesh networks
MACOM'10: Proceedings of the Third international conference on Multiple access communications

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-...
Alleviating intra-flow interference by inter-arrival based packet dropping in wireless multi-hop networks
CFI '10: Proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Future Internet Technologies

In CSMA-based wireless multi-hop networks, consecutive packets on a single multi-hop path interfere with each other, causing hidden/exposed terminal problems and frequent contention. This phenomenon is called intra-flow interference and is considered as ...

Based on whether the competing active nodes are forwarding packets of the same flow, the channel access contention in multi-hop wireless networks can be classified into intra-flow contention and inter-flow contention. In this paper, we analyze the ...
