The most important standard in wireless local area networks is IEEE 802.11. This is why much of the
research work for the enhancement of wireless network is usually based on the behavior of IEEE 802.11
protocol. However, some of the ways in which IEEE 802.11 medium access control layer behaves is still
unreliable to guarantee quality of service. For instance, medium access control layer packet delay, jitter
and packet loss rate still remain a challenge. The main objective of this research is to propose an
accurate estimation of the medium access control layer packet delay distribution for IEEE 802.11. This
estimation considers the differences between busy probability and collision probability. These differences
are employed to achieve a more accurate estimation. Finally, the proposed model and simulation are
implemented and validated - using MATLAB program for the purpose of simulation, and Maple program
to undertake the calculation of the equations
