Abstract
This paper presents an experimentally verified heuristic physical model to predict the throughput of aWireless LAN link in presence of homogeneous interference of neighboring networks. The model predicts achievable throughput based upon two interference characteristics: transmission rate of the interface and the channel occupancy degree of the interference which is a measure of user activity defined in the paper.
