An IBFD MAC Mechanism Considering Capture Effect for Centralized Wireless Networks

In this paper, we provide an In-band Full-duplex (IBFD) medium access control (MAC) mechanism in centralized wireless networks, considering capture effect. The proposed mechanism reinforces capture effect from the MAC point of view so that it contributes to suppress the influence of inter-node interference and improve network throughput. Analytical saturation throughput of the proposed mechanism is derived in the presence of capture effect, where we fully consider that AP and nodes have different interference sources. Numerical results demonstrate the superiority of our proposed scheme in terms of IBFD wireless networks.
