摘要
In the paper, the existence of an Nash equilibrium in the network congestion mode induced by MAC layer competition is proved firstly; Secondly, a cross-layer congestion-control mechanism named WCS is proposed based on WOLF-PHC learning strategy. WCS selects a couple of decoupled node as next-hop nodes at routing layer; Meanwhile, source's traffic is spitted and forwarded at MAC layer, which improves the space reusing efficiency of link. Simulation result shows that: without any exchanging information, optimum split-flow point of source node will be sought by WOLF-PHC in order to maximize the network throughput; Furthermore, WOLF-PHC will discover new optimum split-flow point in order to adapt to new network environment.
