Title
Energy Efficient Backoff-Free Fragment Retransmission Fragmentation Scheme for IEEE 802.11 WLAN
Abstract
This paper investigates the energy efficiency of MAC layer fragmentation. Despite the usefulness of fragmentation in improving transmission reliability in poor quality wireless channels, it comes with overhead costs that lead to its energy inefficiency. We propose backoff-free fragment retransmission (BFFR). BFFR is a fragmentation scheme that addresses some of classical fragmentation overheads. It aims at improving classical fragmentation energy efficiency without adversely affecting its throughput. We implement BFFR in NS3 and performance evaluation showed that BFFR outperforms classical fragmentation scheme in both throughput and energy efficiency.
