  • DCF Distributed Coordination Function
  • the AP and/or STA may perform a Clear Channel Assessment (CCA) to sense the wireless channel or medium for a predetermined time period (e.g., a DCF Inter-Frame Space (DIFS)) before starting transmission. If the sensing result determines that the medium is in an idle state, the AP and/or STA may start transmitting frames through the medium.

  • the IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol provides a Hybrid Coordination Function (HCF).
  • the HCF is based on the DCF and the Point Coordination Function (PCF).
  • the PCF is a polling-based synchronous access method in which all receiving APs and/or STAs periodically poll to receive data frames.
  • the HCF has EDCA (Enhanced Distributed Channel Access) and HCCA (HCF Controlled Channel Access).
  • EDCA is a contention-based access method in which a provider provides data frames to multiple users, and HCCA uses a non-contention-based channel access method using a polling mechanism.
  • the HCF includes a medium access mechanism for improving the QoS (Quality of Service) of a wireless LAN, and can transmit QoS data in both a contention period (CP) and a contention-free period (CFP).
  • QoS Quality of Service
  • a random backoff period When an occupied/busy medium changes to an idle state, multiple STAs may attempt to transmit data (or frames). As a measure to minimize collisions, each STA may select a random backoff count, wait for a corresponding slot time, and then attempt to transmit.
  • the random backoff count has a pseudo-random integer value and may be determined as one of the values in the range of 0 to CW.
  • CW is a contention window parameter value.
  • the CW parameter is initially given CWmin, but may take a double value in case of a transmission failure (e.g., when an ACK for a transmitted frame is not received).
  • the STA continues to monitor the medium while counting down the backoff slots according to the determined backoff count value. If the medium is monitored as occupied, the countdown stops and waits, and when the medium becomes idle, the remaining countdown is resumed.
  • STA3 when a packet to be transmitted reaches the MAC of STA3, STA3 can check that the medium is idle for DIFS and transmit the frame right away. The remaining STAs monitor whether the medium is occupied/busy and wait. In the meantime, data to be transmitted may also occur in each of STA1, STA2, and STA5, and each STA can perform a countdown of the backoff slot according to a random backoff count value selected by each STA after waiting for DIFS when the medium is monitored as idle. Assume that STA2 selects the smallest backoff count value and STA1 selects the largest backoff count value.
  • this example shows a case where the remaining backoff time of STA5 is shorter than the remaining backoff time of STA1 when STA2 finishes the backoff count and starts frame transmission.
  • STA1 and STA5 briefly stop the countdown and wait while STA2 occupies the medium.
  • STA1 and STA5 resume the stopped backoff count after waiting for DIFS. That is, they can start frame transmission after counting down the remaining backoff slots by the remaining backoff time. Since the remaining backoff time of STA5 is shorter than that of STA1, STA5 starts frame transmission. While STA2 occupies the medium, STA4 may also have data to transmit.
  • STA4 From STA4's perspective, when the medium becomes idle, it waits for DIFS, performs a countdown according to the random backoff count value it selected, and starts frame transmission.
  • the remaining backoff time of STA5 coincidentally matches the random backoff count value of STA4, and in this case, a collision may occur between STA4 and STA5. If a collision occurs, neither STA4 nor STA5 will receive an ACK, resulting in a failure in data transmission. In this case, STA4 and STA5 can select a random backoff count value and perform a countdown after doubling the CW value.
  • STA1 waits while the medium is occupied by transmissions from STA4 and STA5, and when the medium becomes idle, it waits for DIFS, and then starts transmitting frames after the remaining backoff time has elapsed.
  • the subtype frames of the control frame include RTS (Request-To-Send), CTS (Clear-To-Send), ACK (Acknowledgment), PS-Poll (Power Save-Poll), Block ACK (BlockAck), Block ACK Request (BlockACKReq), NDP notification (null data packet announcement), and Trigger. If the control frame is not a response frame to the previous frame, it is transmitted after the backoff performed after the DIFS (DIFS), and if it is a response frame to the previous frame, it is transmitted without the backoff performed after the SIFS (short IFS).
