dc.descriptionIn this paper, we study the setting of carrier-sensing range in 802.11 networks under the (cumulative) physical interference model. Specifically, we identify a carrier-sensing range that will prevent collisions in 802.11 networks due to carrier-sensing failure under the physical interference model. We find that the carrier-sensing range required under the physical interference model must be larger than that required under the protocol (pairwise) interference model by a multiplicative factor. For example, if the SINR requirement is 10dB and the path-loss exponent is 4, the factor is 1.4. Furthermore, given a fixed pathloss exponent of 4, the factor increases as the SINR requirement increases. However, the limit of the factor is 1.84 as the SINR requirement goes to infinity.
