ABSTRACT
Nowadays, wireless technologies are continuously in expansion and make more comfortable people life in many ways. Technologies like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or IrDA are well known to everyone. This is a consequence of the benefits that they offer to the society: global Internet access, files sharing without wires, etc. But, there is a problem related to the effects of these technologies: the interferences they cause to each other. These interferences have negative effects to the performance of wireless networks.
This study demonstrates the influence that exists among the different wireless technologies and some devices that are not included in this group. Also, it reproduces different aspects of the real life when they operate all at once in the same environment and the variations in the performance of the wireless networks.

Impact of interference on multi-hop wireless network performance
MobiCom '03: Proceedings of the 9th annual international conference on Mobile computing and networkingIn this paper, we address the following question: given a specific placement of wireless nodes in physical space and a specific traffic workload, what is the maximum throughput that can be supported by the resulting network? Unlike previous work that ...
A survey of wireless technologies coexistence in WBAN: analysis and open research issues
Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) is the most convenient, cost-effective, accurate, and non-invasive technology for e-health monitoring. The performance of WBAN may be disturbed when coexisting with other wireless networks. Accordingly, this paper ...
An interference-aware routing metric for multi-radio multi-channel wireless mesh networks
WIMOB '12: Proceedings of the 2012 IEEE 8th International Conference on Wireless and Mobile Computing, Networking and Communications (WiMob)Achieving efficient QoS routing is one of the major concerns in multi-radio multi-channel wireless mesh networks (WMNs). Due to interference among links, bandwidth in these networks is neither a concave nor an additive metric. Thus, choosing the highest-...
