The
number of collisions that can be seen by a node over a
|
|
certain
period can indicate the node mobility or medium
|
|
|
|
usage
condition more precisely than other parameters
|
|
|
|
Ø |
The
faster nodes move, the larger number of collisions can be
|
|
|
observed
by nodes
|
|
|
|
Ø |
The
larger number of collision happens, the more backoff periods
|
|
|
are
and less medium usage is detected

Method
|
|
|
|
Ø |
Nodes
measure the medium usage and number of collisions over a
|
|
|
certain
period
|
|
|
|
Ø |
Based
on the number of collisions, a suitable threshold is set
