Abstract:Abstract-In this paper, we design an efficient method of simulating wireless networks that use CSMA/CA-based protocols in the MAC layer. In the method, a stochastic model to estimate the CSMA/CA frame transmission delay is naturally incorporated into the conventional fully event-based model. The stochastic model can simplify the interactions between a frame transmitter and its surrounding nodes, which alleviates the event scheduling overhead in simulation. The important feature is that the stochastic model can… Show more
