Chapter 9. Contention Window resettingFigure 9.21: RTS threshold equal to 3000 bytes: Total packets received <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> eDRA, NIAMac, andmobiNIAMac against <strong>the</strong> DCF standard (STD)mance than eDRA and NIAMac. The uncontrolled behavior <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> DCF results in<strong>the</strong> dead <strong>of</strong> all nodes at 18 seconds, while <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r protocols keep on living. Wecan also see that NIAMac and eDRA are competing with each o<strong>the</strong>r to have <strong>the</strong>best throughput. But NIAMac has a longer lifetime than eDRA. That is <strong>the</strong> reasonwhy we combined eDRA with NIAMac to form mobileNIAMac. The mobiNIA-Mac has <strong>the</strong> best performance <strong>of</strong> all <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>m and <strong>the</strong> longest lifetime.This simulation verifies that it is worth to combine <strong>the</strong> NIAMac with <strong>the</strong> mobilityconcept <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> eDRA protocol.170
