This work proposes a tool to estimate the interference between nodes and links in a live wireless network by passive monitoring of wireless traffic. This approach requires deploying multiple sniffers across the network to capture wireless traffic traces. These traces are then analyzed using a machine learning approach to infer the carrier-sense relationship between network nodes. It also demonstrates an important application of this tool-detection of selfish carrier-sense behavior. This is based on identifying any asymmetry in carrier-sense behavior between node pairs and finding multiple witnesses to raise confidence. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed approach of estimating interference relations is significantly more accurate than simpler heuristics and quite competitive with active measurements. Minimizing router overhead taken as a main goal.
