What effect on earth should eD have on laa and wifi network performance?

[John Young]

I configure bsTxGain and bsRxGain to 0. Then I run laa-wifi-indoor with eD configured to -62.0 and -82.0 respectively.  And I found that both laa and wifi's delay both increased when eD goes lower.  Can anyone explain that?

I can answer this generally (not sure whether this is the specific
effect you are seeing). This is a dense network environment. The
lowering of ED increases the effective cell size and makes stations
defer more to one another, which can increase latency.

This documentation explains the idea:

Thanks, that can explain laa's latency increase. But I only change the laa eD, while wifi keeps a eD of -62 dBm. But wifi's delay seems to fluctuate when laa eD ranges between -62 dBm and -82 dBm. Shouldn't wifi always benefit?

It seems the benefit of laa defering can not counteract the interference suffering by wifi. Indeed, wifi seems to deteriorate. However, since wifi suffers interference whatever laa eD is, I feel quite confused. I run ftp with lambda 4 and base duration of 100s in laa simple case and change the RngRun. Unfortunately, both do not take effect.
