In this paper, an improved cooperative MAC protocol which uses Multiplicative-Increase Linear-Decrease (MILD) backoff algorithm in the contention procedure to solve the fairness problem brought by Binary Exponential Backoff (BEB) is proposed for Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN). In order to improve the relay selection mode, the cooperative table in this improved cooperative MAC protocol is stored in the relay station, and we replace one field in it by the Destination ID. The simulation results show that the improved cooperative MAC protocol greatly enhances the throughput performance of the system and provides lower transmission delay in WLAN especially when there are few stations in the network.
