Adaptive polling algorithm for PCF mode of IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs
Xuan Dong · Electronics Letters · 2004
An adaptive PCF polling algorithm based on recent polling feedback is proposed to improve the medium utilisation rate of IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs. It is compatible with the IEEE 802.11 standard and requires a simple extension. Simulation studies show that the PCF performance can be improved in terms of the successful poll rate and the aggregate throughput.
