Abstract
The paper presents new transmission procedures present in IEEE 802.11 standard and compares them to the “traditional” frame exchange method. On the basis of their operating rules, analytical equations are derived that allow calculate network efficiency or effective throughput. The throughput upper limit is also calculated and compared for all considered frame exchange procedures.
