摘要
Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) is the basis of IEEE 802.11 MAC sublayer. To improve energy efficiency, IEEE 802.11 has specified power saving mechanism (PSM) for DCF. However, the performance of PSM degrades seriously when load is heavy. In this paper we first analyze the reason of performance degradation, and then propose two adaptive mechanisms: PSM+ and fairPSM+. Numerous simulation results have shown that these two mechanisms can achieve high performance with heavy load and still get the same performance as PSM when load is light.
