Performance modelling of broadcast polling protocol in unsaturated IEEE 802.16 networks

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Conference contribution › peer-review

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a general model for the broadcast polling protocol of unsaturated IEEE 802.16 networks in which each subscriber station has a finite buffer. A subscriber station can be modelled as a M/G/1/K queue with its service time determined by the broadcast polling protocol. The buffer overflow probability, network throughput and packet delay performances are analyzed. The proposed model is validated by simulation confirming its accuracy for various scenarios studied.
