Abstract
The IEEE 802.11 wireless media access standard supports multiple data rates at the physical layer. Moreover, various auto rate adaptation mechanisms at the medium access layer have been proposed to utilize this multi-rate capability by automatically adapting the transmission rate to best match the channel conditions. However, there is little available simulation implementation available for the multi-rate adaptation research purpose. In this project, an extension of rate-adaptive MAC protocol based on the Receiver-Based Auto-Rate (RBAR) was developed to enable the multi-rate simulation in NS2 simulator. Related simulation results and performance evaluation such as rate adaptation, throughput, delay and etc. are also presented to validate the simulation module.
