We propose a closed-loop, dynamic rate adaptation algorithm that can be implemented in all
IEEE 802.11 a/b/g compliant wireless local area networks. Our proposed algorithm is a …

The IEEE 802.11 standards support multiple bit rates at the physical layer so that stations
can maximize the system performance by controlling the transmission rate responding to the …

Classical 802.11 rate adaptation algorithms rely on feedback from the receiver to correctly
choose a sending rate, typically in the form of acknowledgments (ACKs). In the absence of …

The IEEE 802.11 standard conformant wireless communication stations have multi-rate
transmission capability. To achieve greater communication efficiency, multi-rate capable …

While many existing rate adaptation schemes in IEEE 802.11 Wireless LANs result in severe
throughput degradation since they do not consider the collision effect when selecting the …

The mechanism to select one out of multiple available transmission rates at a given time is
referred to as link adaptation. The effectiveness of a link adaptation scheme depends on …

Many rate adaptation algorithms have been proposed for IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN
devices and most of them operate in an open-loop manner, ie, the transmitter adapts its …

Wireless local area networks (WLANs) have become increasingly popular due to the recent
availability of affordable devices providing multirate capabilities. However, because of the …

The design of efficient IEEE 802.11 physical (PHY) rate adaptation algorithms is a
challenging research topic and usually the issues surrounding their implementations on real …

IEEE 802.11 wireless network supports multiple link rates at the physical layer. Each link
rate is associated with a certain required Signal-to-Interference-and-Noise Ratio (SINR) …
