  • Abstract
    Congestion bottlenecks at nodes where flows cross can severely limit the number of simultaneous flows in ad hoc wireless networks using 802.11 media access. We show how routing protocols and packet generation parameters can be modified to reduce congestion at such bottlenecks. We also present results of implementation tests which show dramatic reduction of packet error rate and delay, and increase in the number of VoIP sessions due to reduction in congestion
