dc.descriptionCellular phones, wireless laptops, personal portable devices that supports both voice and data access are all examples of communicating devices that uses wireless communication. Sine TCP/IP (and UDP) is the dominant technology in use in the internet, it is expected that they will be used (and they are currently) over wireless connections. In this paper, we investigate the performance of the TCP (and UDP) over IEEE802.11 wireless MAC protocol. We investigate the performance of the TCP and UDP assuming three different traffic patterns. First bulk transmission where the main concern is the throughput. Second real-time audio (using UDP) in the existence of bulk TCP transmission where the main concern is the packet loss for audio traffic. Finally web traffic where the main concern is the response time. We also investigate the effect of using forward Error Correction (FEC) technique and the MAC sublayer parameters on the throughput and response time.
