Wireless local area networks (WLANs) are extremely popular being almost everywhere including business, office and home deployments. The IEEE 802.11 protocol is the dominating standard for WLANs. The essential medium access control (MAC) mechanism of 802.11 is called distributed co-ordination functio
This paper focuses on the design and performance evaluation of a new mechanism, named Distributed Contention Control (DCC), for the adaptive contention reduction in LAN networks that utilize random access MAC protocols. The proposed mechanism could be executed on the top of a preexistent access prot
