Abstract

This paper proposes an analytical framework for evaluating the performance of coexistent heterogeneous wireless networks configured with different transmission powers and carrier sense thresholds. Two models, M-INF and M-MAC, are developed based on two-dimensional Markov chain. M-INF evaluates the effect of asymmetric channel access
and interference among heterogeneous wireless networks, whereas M-MAC evaluates the effectiveness of a negative acknowledgement (NACK) mechanism. Results obtained from simulations are compared with those obtained from our proposed M-INF as well as conventional models, e.g., CHAM and HSM. It was found that simulations match our proposed
models more closely than the conventional models. In addition, results obtained from M-MAC suggest that using NACK improves network performance by 40%.
