Throughput Performance Evaluation on Wired and Wireless Network Cooperation Quick Recovery System Employing IEEE 802.11 DCF

This paper investigates achievable MAC level throughput performance of wired and wireless network cooperation (NeCo) system, which realizes quick recover civilian telecommunication services in the aftermath of a catastrophic disaster. The proposed NeCo system should achieve both rapid recovery and high throughput using wireless bypass routes backhauled by wired networks. Moreover, wireless equipment also should be low-cost and energy efficient for emergency use. This paper employs IEEE 802.11ac wireless LAN based bypassing and evaluates its MAC level throughput using event-driven simulator. Results confirm our proposed bypass routing method can enhance system throughput compared to the existing one.
