Abstract
We present a novel technique for accurately estimating the proportions of packet losses arising from collisions and from other sources of loss (channel noise, hidden nodes etc). Our approach is robust, makes use of local station-level measurements and requires no message passing. The required
measurements are available in standard hardware as they are
required for CSMA/CA operation. No channel quality probing
is required which ensures energy efficiency.
