| Abstract | The performance unfairness problem in a single cell IEEE 802.11 wireless local area network (WLAN) is considered. While existing research is based on the assumption that all nodes have the same transmission success probability and per-node throughput, this fairness exists only if all nodes within range of the access point can sense each other. Recent measurements suggest that this is not necessarily true and terminals can be hidden from each other. In this paper, the impact of hidden terminals on the performance unfairness among individual nodes is investigated via analysis, simulation and experimental measurements in a real network. In the presence of hidden terminals, it is observed that the widely accepted conclusion of equal performance among nodes does not hold any more. Instead, nodes far from the access point (AP) see more hidden terminals than those close to the AP, so they get more packet losses and lower throughput. This phenomenon is not due to inter-cell interference, or channel disparities among nodes, and is significant even when the RTS/CTS mechanism designed to mitigate the impact of hidden terminals is turned on. The simulation results show that for a 16-node WLAN with a fixed data rate of 6Mbps, the throughput of a node close to the AP is more than twice that of an edge node, due to hidden terminals. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
