Project Description
Develop Simulation Model for IEEE 802.11g Wireless Network Standard.
Focussing on the Distributed Coordination Function (DCF)
Test the performance of DCF under different conditions.
Compare results against two other systems Bianchi's Analytic Model Andrew Symington's Test Network

Key Features
Contention-Based Mechanism
Scalability
Modularity
Expected Impact
Bring about a third method to test performance of 802.11
Flexible and Scalable Solution Can use different workload models Can be extended to any number of network stations
Key Success Factors
Can simulate IEEE802.11g under different workload conditions.
Produce results that should be comparable to the two other methods of performance analysis.
