Dynamic Adjustment of Packet Based on Fair Bandwidth Allocation in IEEE 802.11 Wireless Networks

In view of the imbalance of upstream and downstream flows in the access of local manufacturing resources, this paper proposes a dynamic adjustment algorithm based on bandwidth fair allocation (DAPFBA, Dynamic Adjustment of Packet based on Fair Bandwidth Allocation), which dynamically adjusts the packet size of nodes according to the number of downflows and realizes the downstream throughput balance, so as to realize the fair distribution of upstream and downstream bandwidth. According to the actual situation of the network, the algorithm can be implemented in the AP without modifying the MAC of other wireless nodes, which saves the workload of the implementation. Especially in the case of more and scattered wireless nodes, it only needs to modify the AP without modifying other nodes, eliminating a lot of work to configure the decentralized nodes.
