Abstract

In this paper we proposed an algorithm to improve TCP fairness in IEEE802.11-based ad-hoc network. Proposed algorithm uses cross layer approach which involved the cooperation between MAC layer and network layer. The solution alleviates exposed terminal problem by allowing MAC layer to use the topology information available in network layer.
