Abstract
This paper concentrates on the IEEE 802.11p MAC sublayer to analyze its performance in the presence of hidden terminals. An analytical model for the throughput of the IEEE 802.11p in the presence of hidden terminal is presented in this paper. A 3-D Markov chain is created to model the backoff procedure for each access category. The different contention windows and arbitration interframe space are considered for each access category. The model also takes into consideration control packets and data packets separately. The probabilities of frame blocking, successful transmission, collisions and hidden terminals have been derived and used to calculate the throughput. The simulation results are presented to validate the analytical results of the proposed model. The results of the proposed model are compared with the existing model IEEE 802.11 EDCA (Kosek-Szott et al. in Comput Netw 55(3):622–635, 2011). The results of the proposed model outperform the existing model.
