Overview:

This paper presents a novel performance analysis of the downlink of WLANs carrying TCP traffic. The paper first provide a packet level analysis that accounts not only for the interaction between TCP and the IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol, but also for the different radio conditions experienced by various users. It then studies the quality of service as perceived by users, i.e., it characterized the mean transfer time of data flows (web pages, les, etc.). The latter performance metric and its evaluation can then be used to design efficient dimensioning rules. The derived analytical results are validated through simulations.
