A wireless network fairness algorithm for the backoff
Chunhui Wu · Journal of Hefei University of Technology · 2008
To improve the channel throughput and fairness of random access channels,a fairness backoff algorithm(FBA) is proposed.A novel feature of the FBA scheme is the sensing mechanism to keep fairness.Every active node sensing the successful transmission copys the transmitter's backoff interval as the next backoff intervals themselves.Simulation results indicate that the FBA scheme out-performs BEB and MILD.
