About this paper
Pietro Chiavassa, Stefano Scanzio, Gianluca Cena
An ns-3 simulation study examines how Linux’s Minstrel Wi-Fi rate adaptation performs as an industrial device moves, measuring packet loss and both average and 99th-percentile latency. Faster movement raises latency particularly at longer distances, while hidden-node interference produces packet losses of up to about 1% and 99th-percentile latency above 25 ms.
Key insights
- Mobility has its clearest latency effect at greater distances, where a rate choice that no longer fits channel conditions can lead to retries; the effect grows as movement speed increases.
- Interference affects performance differently: visible interference mainly increases occasional long delays, whereas hidden-node collisions cause packet loss and more severe latency degradation.
