Recently, Qualcomm Inc. has introduced MAC and PHY speciſcations, called FlashLinQ (FLQ), for device-to-device (D2D) communication. In FLQ, each D2D pair accesses to wireless medium through comparing signal to interference ratios (SIRs) and two predeſned thresholds. In previous work for FLQ, only identical thresholds are considered for performance evaluation. Since performance of FLQ is mainly affected by the thresholds, they should be adjusted to optimize the network performance. In this paper, we evaluate performance of FLQ with various thresholds.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
