Opportunistic link scheduling for multihop wireless networks
Abstract
This paper studies throughput improvement for TCP traffic in IEEE 802.11-based multihop ad hoc wireless networks. Due to the incompatibility between TCP and the IEEE 802.11 distributed coordination function (DCF) protocols, the reaction of TCP in case of packet losses can significantly reduce TCP end-to-end throughput. In this paper, we propose an opportunistic link scheduling (OLS), which is a simple enhancement to the IEEE 802.11 DCF protocol …
