Abstract: Through performance analysis for MAC(Media Access Control) protocol in Wireless Local Area Network(WLAN), it can understand in depth the operational characteristic of MAC protocol and find out the essential reason of affecting the performance of MAC protocol, such as throughput, packet delay and packet loss. It elaborates detailedly the related work using the Markov chain analysis and gives a survey of the related work of performance analysis for the distributed coordination function and enhanced distributed channel access MAC protocol in WLAN. It gives analyses and outlooks for the further research.
