Abstract

This paper proposes a novel framework for the cross-layer design and optimization of wireless networks combining adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) at the physical (PHY) layer by means of automatic repeat request and channel-aware multiuser scheduling protocols at the data link control (DLC) layer. The proposed framework is based on the use of two-dimensional discrete time Markov chains (DTMCs) jointly modelling the AMC scheme and the amplitude contention window (CW). A new algorithm for dynamic configuration of the polled transmission opportunity (TXOP) in multi-rate IEEE 802.11e network is presented and its performance is analysed and compared with default configuration. The numerical simulation results have indicated the high efficacy of the proposed method in maximizing the average throughput of the system.
