Topology 4: Concurrent Traffic Sessions (MAC Fairness)

Goal

This represents a typical scenario with multiple indepdent traffic session sharing a same 802.11 channel.

Steps

In order to achieve this, the following steps are needed

• The corner node (1,2) is selected as the AP
• Select the set of nodes on the grid as required (clients)
• Disable autorate adaptation in the card
• Set the PHY rates to fixed rates based on the distribution required by the experimenter

Scripts

Sample Results

We plot the throughput for each individual session using the experiment script provided above.
