 == Competing Flows ==
+This test measures the achieved throughput of two competing flows between two nodes. Each node sources a backlogged flow of max-length UDP packets for the other node. The contention between flows is managed by the 802.11 DCF.
+
+Traffic for this experiment is generated using iperf on OS X machines connected to each node via 1Gb Ethernet.
+
+The chart below shows this test for two hardware setups:
+ * W3-to-W3: Two WARP v3 nodes each running the 802.11 Reference Design, one acting as AP, the other as a station
+ * W3-to-WRT: One WARP v3 node connected to a Linksys WRT54G node. The WARP node acts as AP, the WRT54G as a station
+
+In both configurations the devices' RF interfaces are connected by a coax cable and 50dB attenuation.
