AbstractThe rapid development of Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) has not yet broken the bottleneck which the low transmission speed hinders the further development of WLAN, But now, to solve the problem about the high-speed transmission and to ensure reliable performance, IEEE-SA organized a new work group of IEEE802.11n (TGn). TGn has made general amendment to 802.11. Based on IEEE802.11n, the transmission speed can be doubled by the application of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) and Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) technologies on the physical layer; and the Medium Access Control (MAC) system performance is enhanced by packet aggregation, reverse direction, block acknowledge and so on.In the thesis, the key technologies and the performance of MAC layer of IEEE802.11n are researched based on MAC layer of IEEE802.11n. The four main aggregation methods are compared with the efficiency and reliability. Further, the throughput of the A-MSDU and A-MPDU with good transmission efficiency and reliability are analyzed under good channel and error channel.One important scheme of distribution coordination function (DCF) is binary backoff algorithm. From our study, it showed that DCF leads to inefficient utilization of scarce wireless resource, though DCF can solve the channel contention by using random backoff scheme. Especially, in a highly loaded network, the portion of channel bandwidth is wasted due to significantly high collisions. In this thesis, we present a different mechanism which the range value of Random backoff counter is changed to achieve better and more stable performance the DCF. The simulation results verify that the proposed method on DCF is effective. Finally we prospect the future research areas of the DCF in IEEE802.11n.Keywords IEEE802.11n, aggregation, backoff algorithm, throughput目录摘要 ...............................................................................................................IAbstract ......................
