A. 4m X 4m Single Hop System
The average delay, PFR, and throughput functioning for the
single-hop condition within the 4m × 4m network area are
specified in Figures 1 to 3 as a function of the number of
source-destination pairs. Since the base and targeting nodes
are haphazardly applied, the average distance for the active
links will be less than 3 m. It is elicited from Section II.A that

perfectly (that is, the system performance match those
presented on the MBOA proposal, when considering the
overheads of other network layers), the packet failure rate due
to the blunder in channel will be very minute (close to zero)
for transmission systems operating at 55 Mbps and 200 Mbps.
However, there may be transmission errors present for
transmission systems operating at 480 Mbps.
The saturation throughput, that is attainable throughput when
the network saturation occurs for transmission systems
operating at 55 Mbps, is reached when 8 or more source-
destination pairs are present. This is appropriate since the
network throughput produced in [8] is about 48 Mbps at the
physical layer for systems being managed at 55 Mbps. It can Figure 2.: PFR vs. Number of Source - Destination pairs for the single Hop

C. Simulation Results for 10m X 10m Single Hop System
The average delay, PFR, and throughput performance for the
single-hop scenarios within a 10m x 10m area are illustrated in
Figures 4 to 6 as a function of the number of source-
destination pairs. Since the source and destination nodes are
randomly assigned, the average distance for the active links
will be less than 7 m. Theoretically, if the physical layer and
MAC layer developed in this study work well, the packet
failure rate due to the channel error will be very small (close to
zero) for the systems operating at 55 Mbps. However, there
may be channel errors present for the systems operating at 200
Mbps. It was estimated that there would be a huge number of

It can be analyzed that for systems manipulating at 55 Mbps,

much greater than the PFR gained in the case of a 4m x 4m

approached at least for 10 source-destination pairs, for systems
operating at 480 Mbps. The average downtime is very
minimal, and less than 10 ms. However, the PFR is between
40% and 70%, which is too large to be acceptable. It can be Figure 6.: Throuput vs.Number of Source – Destination pairs for single Hop
