| 70 | | The first thing to notice is that the sum throughput achieved by all flows together is less than any one of the throughputs achieved by one of the flows on their own. This makes sense |
| | 70 | The first thing to notice is that the sum throughput achieved by all flows together is less than any one of the throughputs achieved by one of the flows on their own. The isolated throughputs in the [#Baseline:PerformanceofEachFlowinIsolation previous section] are upper bounds on perfomance because there are no losses due to collisions. When all four flows contend for the same medium, collisions are inevitable, yielding an overall reduction in network sum throughput. |
