Abstract

This paper presents an analytical model for saturationthroughput of IEEE 802.11 Distributed Coordination Function(DCF) with multiple classes of service based on varyingthe parameters used in Medium Access Control. Inparticular, we show that relative service differentiation caneasily be achieved by varying the initial contention windowalone. The simulation results show the validity of thismodel.
