摘要
Frame aggregation is a wireless link optimization mechanism that aims to reduce transmission overheads by sending multiple frames as the payload of a single MAC frame. It is considered as one of the most efficient methods to improve the wireless channel utilization and the throughput of wireless networks.The static assignment of frame aggregation parameters can result in delay penalties due to variations in traffic type. We propose a frame aggregation scheme which is based on dynamic pricing and queue scheduling for a multitraffic scenario. The scheme adopts a dynamic differential pricing scheme for different types of traffic. Meanwhile, it polls buffer queues in accordance with the optimal aggregation weight factors to maximise the network revenue.Simulation results indicate that the proposed frame aggregation scheme can effectively improve the network revenue and the average throughput, while guaranteeing the delay requirements of all types of traffic.
Frame aggregation is a wireless link optimization mechanism that aims to reduce transmission overheads by sending multiple flames as the payload of a single MAC flame. It is considered as one of the most efficient methods to improve the wireless channel utilization and the throughput of wireless networks. The static assignment of frame aggregation parameters can result in delay penalties due to variations in traffic type. We propose a frame aggregation scheme which is based on dyn- amic pricing and queue scheduling for a multi- traffic scenario. The scheme adopts a dynamic differential pricing scheme for different types of traffic. Meanwhile, it polls buffer queues in accordance with the optimal aggregation wei- ght factors to maximise the network revenue. Simulation results indicate that the proposed frame aggregation scheme can effectively improve the network revenue and the average throughput, while guaranteeing the delay requirements of all types of traffic.
