Abstract
A study of the effect of the optical path delay on
the effectiveness of the request to send/clear to send (RTS/CTS)
exchange in high-speed IEEE 802.11 wireless LAN (WLAN) over
fiber networks has been carried out. It is shown that although
the fiber delay might violate some of the timing boundaries of
the medium access control (MAC) protocol, with a careful choice
of the RTS threshold parameter, which determines when the
RTS/CTS is used, these networks can benefit significantly from
the four-way handshake even without the need for modifying the
existing protocol
