Abstract
Abstract—In this paper we present the first field measurements
taken using a new approach proposed in [1] for measuring
link impairments in 802.11 WLANs. This uses a sender-side
MAC/PHY cross-layer technique that can be implemented on
standard hardware and is able to explicitly classify lost transmission
opportunities into noise-related losses, collision induced
losses, hidden-node losses and to distinguish among these different
types of impairments on a per-link basis. We show that
potential benefits arising from the availability of accurate and
reliable data are considerable.
