Abstract
In this presentation, we evaluate the impact of IEEE 802.11n operation on IEEE 802.15.4 performance via test bed experiments. The IEEE 802.15.4 performance is measured in terms of packet loss rate and the latency for successfully delivered packets.

IEEE 802.15.4: Overview
• A MAC/PHY layer protocol for low power, low data rate (< 250 kbps) wireless sensor applications
• Based on CSMA/CA

Submission
The CSMA/CA algorithm in (unslotted) 802.15.4
• The source node backoffs for a random number of slots between 0 and (2^BE) – 1– BE is Backoff Exponent
• After the backoff, the source node does the clear channel assessment (CCA)
• If the channel is not idle (CCA Failure), the source node increments BE and repeat the process up to 4 times– The initial BE value is 3 and max BE value is 5

Submission
The CSMA/CA algorithm in (unslotted) 802.15.4
• If the CCA fails even after 4th retry, the source node declares channel access failure (CAF) and abandons the packet transmission
• If the CCA succeeds, the source node transmits the packet.
• On receiving the packet, the destination optionally sends an acknowledgement back

Submission
Collisions and Retransmissions
• If the packet or the ack suffers a collision, the source node waits for a certain time duration and then repeat the (backoff + transmission) process up to 3 more times.
• If the ack is not received even after the 3rd retry, the source node declares a collision failure and abandons the packet.

Packet Loss in IEEE 802.15.4
• Channel access failure– channel access failure occurs after 5 back-to-back CCA
failures during a try.
• Collision failure – occurs after failure to receive the ack even after 4 tries.
• Note that a channel access failure causes abandonment of packet transmission attempt even if 4 tries have not been made.

Impact of IEEE 802.11n operation on IEEE 802.15.4 Performance
• IEEE 802.15.4 performance is measured in terms of the packet loss rate and latency for successfully delivered packets.
• In the following graphs, we plot the increase in average loss rate/latency values for IEEE 802.15.4 nodes due to the presence of an IEEE 802.11n network.

Submission
Traffic in IEEE 802.15.4 Network
• 15 nodes sending packets to the coordinator.
• The packet size is 112 bytes.
• Each node sends on average one packet per second (poisson distributed) for 15 minutes
• IEEE 802.15.4 network uses a 3 MHz wide channel centered at 2425 MHz (Channel 15)
• Power level: 10dBm
