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

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

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

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.

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

Traffic in IEEE 802.11n Network
• An iperf client sends a UDP stream to an iperf server
over an IEEE 802.11n network
• Power level 17dBm
• Packet size: 1470 bytes
• Client generates traffic at rates 1, 2, 5, 10, 15, 20 Mbps.

IEEE 802.11n Channels Used
• Scenario 1: Channel 1, 20 MHz wide, no overlap with
IEEE 802.15.4 channel
• Scenario 2: Channel 6, 40 MHz wide (extends towards
channel 11), no overlap with IEEE 802.15.4 channel
• Scenario 3: Channel 1, 40 MHz wide, extends into the
channel used by IEEE 802.15.4 network
• Scenario 4: Channel 4, 20 MHz wide, overlaps the
channel used by IEEE 802.15.4 network
