Abstract
In this paper, the calculation of saturation throughput
for previously proposed Multi-User - Distributed Coordination
Function (MU-DCF) is presented. MU-DCF is an IEEE
802.11 based protocol that supports multi-user (MU)-Multiple
Input-Multiple Output (MIMO) transmissions.
The analysis is for two extreme case scenarios: Access Point
(AP) downlink in a hotspot scenario, and fully interconnected
network. Special attention is payed on the statistical properties
of traffic sources, since in MU-DCF networks they have strong
impact on performance. In addition, the difference in performance
between MU and single-user (SU) transmission strategies
is evaluated, pointing out to the tradeoff between delay and
throughput.
