Abstract:
This paper presents an analysis of the IEEE 802.16e MAC overhead in case of WLAN. The influence of several parameters is examined. The parameters, such as the number of subscribed stations in the network, The Quality of Service(QOS), various modulation and coding for different MAC protocols, the back-off window size and length of MAC PDUs are assigned as the overhead parameter. The results show these parameters have significant impact on the efficiency of MAC layer. Finally, some recommendations to reduce the overhead and moving towards a collision free medium access for QoS support in WLAN
