RTS/CTS reduces the problem of collisions in the wireless medium while adding some overhead in terms of band-width use. Students will compute the efficiency of wireless data transfer over a shared wireless channel using RTS/CST. They will repeat their observations under identical scenarios without RTS/CTS. Then they will compare the difference between the observed and the calculated values. Students should run the simulation, change the traffic load by using the last two digits of their index numbers, and plot the graph between the traffic load and the throughput.
