This paper deals with the medium access control (MAC) subsystem which has been implemented in the MEDIAN project (wireless broadband LANs for professional and residential multimedia applications) belonging to the European Union's (EU's) advanced communications technologies and services (ACTS) program. The proposed MAC aims at providing a low complexity and efficient transport for asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) cells from a base station (BS), interfaced with an ATM local exchange (LEX), to ATM portable stations (PSs) and vice versa. A time division duplex (TDD) scheme is adopted in which uplink and downlink frame durations can be varied frame-by-frame, in order to fit the present uplink/downlink traffic mix. Moreover, in the uplink, a contention-free based technique is considered in which the slots are assigned to the calls depending on the present load of the PS uplink buffers  相似文献

Cellular packet data systems require medium access control (MAC) protocols that allow flexible resource allocation on both the uplink and the downlink. The overhead introduced for managing MAC functions should be minimized, and control fields should be well protected in order to provide robustness to channel errors. The IS-136 TDMA digital control channel specifies shared channel feedback (SCF) procedures and fields for managing uplink resources. However, the SCF mechanism is not well suited to long packet data transactions. We describe a simple and robust packet channel feedback (PCF) mechanism for an IS-136 based TDMA packet data channel by identifying the minimal set of functions and fields required to manage both contention access and reserved access. The proposed scheme has unambiguous state transitions and better performance under error conditions. The PCF scheme provides considerable flexibility in assigning bandwidth to multiple users, and allows the efficient scheduling of contention and reservation opportunities on each subchannel without wasted slots  相似文献

An efficient MAC protocol and flexible dynamic channel allocation (DCA) scheme for the UMTS-TDD mode is presented which exploits the characteristics of connectionless and connection-oriented services. The proposed protocol gives fast channel access and high bandwidth efficiency in any traffic scenario asymmetric between uplink and downlink channels, particularly in the presence of Internet traffic  相似文献

802.11 WLAN基础架构BSS(基础服务集)的DCF模式下,有两个因素严重影响可用带宽.一是随着竞争站点数增加,信道竞争开销增大,利用率下降;二是AP(接入点)在竞争信道中并无优势,上下行带宽严重不对称,降低了实际利用率.针对这两个问题提出一种新的MAC机制,首先通过在AP端统计MAC地址来估计竞争站点数,然后根据数学模型计算AP和站点上下行比例控制下的最优初始竞争窗值,通过广播设置以获取信道最大利用率.  相似文献

The IEEE 802.16 WirelessMAN standard provides a comprehensive quality-of-service (QoS) control structure to enable flow isolation and service differentiation over the common wireless network interface. By specifying a particular set of service parameters, the media access control (MAC) mechanisms defined in the standard are able to offer predefined QoS provisioning on a per-connection basis. However, the design of efficient, flexible, and yet robust MAC scheduling algorithms for such QoS provisioning still remains an open topic. This paper proposes a new QoS control scheme for single-carrier point-to-multipoint mode wireless metropolitan area network (WirelessMAN) systems, which enables the predefined service parameters to control the service provided to each uplink and downlink connection. By MAC-PHY cross-layer resource allocation, the proposed scheme is robust against particular wireless link degradation. Detailed simulation experiments are presented to study the performance and to validate the effectiveness of the proposed QoS control scheme.  相似文献

The hybrid MAC protocol specified by IEEE 802.11ad for millimeter wave wireless LANs consist of carrier sense multiple access/collision avoidance (CSMA/CA) during the contention based access periods (CBAPs) and TDMA during the service periods. To provide channel access during CBAP, the coverage area around the access point (AP) can be divided into several quasi omni (QO) beam levels. When uplink channel access during CBAP is considered, every directional multigigabit station residing within a QO level uses CSMA/CA protocol for getting the transmission opportunity. With equal beam width receive QO levels at the AP, we present an analytical model to compute the uplink throughput of the network in the CBAP, by closely following the 802.11ad MAC protocol specifications. We demonstrate that PHY layer MCS (modulation and coding scheme) dependent adaptive selection of QO levels can improve the throughput performance. In the second part of the paper, we consider that PCP/AP can have at most three radios, each tuned to operate in non-overlapping frequency bands as specified by 802.11ad PHY. We establish that such an arrangement can lead to concurrent transmissions in the network and improve the uplink throughput performance.  相似文献

The realization of full-duplex wireless communication is predictable. And asymmetric transmission is a practical and low-cost application scenario, where full-duplex access point (FD_AP) can communicate with two users simultaneously to receive and send packets. While, in an asymmetric transmission, the transmit power of uplink sender decides the uplink and downlink rates because of the inter-client interference, which accordingly restricts the throughput. Besides, the size of packets in uplink and downlink is generally unequal. Therefore, a WIFI network with a FD_AP and half-duplex users is studied in this paper, and a medium access control (MAC) protocol based on power control and rate selection (PCRS) is proposed. PCRS MAC employs a received signal strength based rate selection strategy to select different rates and power for uplink and downlink transmission. Then, FD_AP can establish efficient and reliable full-duplex asymmetric transmission. Simulation results show that PCRS can improve the throughput and the probability of successful asymmetric communication as compared to the distributed coordination function (DCF) and a simple full-duplex MAC protocol without PCRS. Besides, PCRS MAC also maintains a high level of fairness.

Duplex services are multimedia services that requires good connectivity in both uplink and downlink such as VoIP, video conferencing and interactive gaming. A weak connection in either direction may cause degradation of performances and dissatisfaction of user experience. Most researchers do not consider this issue and treat resource allocations in uplink and downlink independently. For this reason, the conventional resource management schemes do not guarantee a good duplex connectivity. Generally, duplex schemes require some relation or information to be exchanged between uplink and downlink resource allocation processes. The existing duplex resource allocation schemes, however, have high complexity and do not adhere to the IEEE 802.16 standard. In this paper, we propose a duplex resource management scheme for IEEE 802.16 network to enhance the user experience and to improve the network performances. The proposed resource management scheme is a MAC layer function that co-relates the uplink and downlink allocation processes using a newly proposed duplex variable. Simulation studies show that the proposed scheme brings significant benefit to duplex services in the IEEE 802.16 networks and outperforms the conventional and existing schemes in terms of uplink and downlink transmission gap, QoS performances and fairness.  相似文献

High speed Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) wireless networks are assuming a growing interest in the personal communication area [1–6]. This paper describes the design of a wireless ATM system, which is being implemented in the MEDIAN project belonging to the European Community (EC) Advance Communications Technologies and Services (ACTS) programme. The Medium Access Control (MAC) aims at providing a simple and efficient transport for ATM cells from a Base Station (BS), interfaced with the ATM Broadband Integrated Service Digital Network (B-ISDN), to ATM Portable Stations (PSs) and vice versa. A Time Division Duplex (TDD) scheme is adopted in which uplink and downlink frame durations can be varied frame-by-frame, in order to fit the present uplink/downlink traffic mix. Moreover, in the uplink, a contention-free based technique is considered in which the slots are assigned to the calls depending on the present load of the PS uplink buffers. The proposed interworking with the ATM network is based on the concept of intercepting the ATM Signalling and Management Cells at the BS, in order to deduce from the ATM Q.2931 messages information relevant to the registration, the call set-up and the MAC procedures.  相似文献

Performance analysis of RLC/MAC and LLC Layers in a GPRS protocol stack   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
In this paper, we analyze the performance of various layers of the general packet radio service (GPRS) protocol stack, including radio link control/medium-access control (RLC/MAC) layer and logical link-control (LLC) layer on the uplink. In the GPRS MAC protocol, several time-slotted uplink radio-frequency channels are shared by the mobiles on a request-reservation-based multiple-access scheme. Using the theory of Markov chains, we derive expressions for the average throughput and delay performance of the GPRS MAC protocol. We evaluate the performance of the RLC layer (in acknowledged mode) using block-level retransmission (BLR), as defined in the current GPRS standard, and compare it with that of using slot-level retransmission (SLR). We show that SLR at the RLC layer performs significantly better than the BLR, particularly when the channel-error rates are moderate to high. We further investigate the choice of parameters (e.g., number of retransmission attempts) for the automatic repeat request schemes at the RLC and LLC layers. Our results show that it is more beneficial to do error recovery by allowing more retransmission attempts at the RLC layer than at the LLC layer. We also evaluate the performance of transmission-control protocol with BLR and SLR at the RLC layer.  相似文献

In this study, we consider a single-hop wireless sensor network where both the sensor nodes and the controller node have multiple antennas. We focus on single beam opportunistic communication and propose a threshold-based medium access control (MAC) scheme for uplink packet transmission which exploits multiuser diversity gain without feedback in a decentralized manner. Packet transfer from sensor nodes to the controller node is initiated when the channel quality of any node exceeds the predefined threshold based on the effective signal-to-noise ratio (ESNR) measurements at the sensor nodes through linear combining techniques. The optimum threshold is determined to maximize the probability of successful packet transmission where only one sensor node transmits its packet in one time-slot. The proposed scheme trades the successful packet rate to increase the SNR of the successful packets assuming Rayleigh fading and collision-based reception model. Computer simulations confirm that proposed scheme has higher successful packet SNR compared to the simple time division multiple access (TDMA)-based MAC scheme with round-robin fashion. The use of multiple antennas at the sensor nodes can also improve the throughput of proposed scheme compared with our previous scheme without implementing the spatial diversity at the SNs.  相似文献

In the last years, the number of Wi-Fi hotspots at public venues has undergone a substantial growth, promoting the WLAN technologies as the ubiquitous solution to provide high-speed wireless connectivity in public areas. However, the adoption of a random access CSMA-based paradigm for the 802.11 MAC protocol makes difficult to ensure high throughput and a fair allocation of radio resources in 802.11-based WLANs. In this paper we evaluate extensively via simulations the interaction between the flow control mechanisms implemented at the TCP layer and the contention avoidance techniques used at the 802.11 MAC layer. We conducted our study considering initially M wireless stations performing downloads from the Internet. From our results, we observed that the TCP downlink throughput is not limited by the collision events, but by the inability of the MAC protocol to assign a higher chance of accessing the channel to the base station. We propose a simple and easy to implement modification of the base station’s behavior with the purpose of increasing the TCP throughput reducing useless MAC protocol overheads. With our scheme, the base station is allowed to transmit periodically bursts of data frames towards the mobile hosts. We design a resource allocation protocol aimed at maximizing the success probability of the uplink transmissions by dynamically adapting the burst length to the collision probability estimated by the base station. By its design, our scheme is also beneficial to achieve a fairer allocation of the channel bandwidth among the downlink and uplink flows, and among TCP and UDP flows. Simulation results confirm both the improvement in the TCP downlink throughput and the reduction of system unfairness.  相似文献

RFID tags are used for varied applications in large numbers. Human Tracking is one such important application wherein the RFID system detects the presence of a tag in a dense tag environment. Quick estimation of the number of tags in the field at a desired level of accuracy is one of the most common requirements in the present scenario. Identification of tags has become a critical area which need more time and unsuitable in many situations; especially where tag set is dense. We introduce a novel medium access control (MAC) protocol for Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) systems which exploits the statistical information collected at the reader. The protocol, termed Adaptive Slot Adaptive Frame (ASAF) ALOHA protocol, is motivated to significantly improve the total read time performance of the currently suggested MAC protocols for RFID systems by minimizing the collisions of the tags. In order to perform this task, ASAF estimates the dynamic tag population and adapts the frame size and number of slots simultaneously in the subsequent round via a simple policy that maximizes an appropriately defined function. We demonstrated that ASAF is better than the current RFID MAC protocols. We also considered the case where suddenly if the number of tags increases, the running frame with adapted slots gets flushed away and new frame with increased number of slots gets adapted automatically by the system showing the robustness in this case as well.  相似文献

Advances in low-power and low-cost sensor networks have led to solutions mature enough for use in a broad range of applications varying from health monitoring to building surveillance. The development of those applications has been stimulated by the finalization of the IEEE 802.15.4 standard, which defines the medium access control (MAC) and physical layer for sensor networks. One of the MAC schemes proposed is slotted Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA), and this paper analyzes whether this scheme meets the design constraints of those low-power and low-cost sensor networks. The paper provides a detailed analytical evaluation of its performance in a star topology network, for uplink and acknowledged uplink traffic. Both saturated and unsaturated periodic traffic scenarios are considered. The form of the analysis is similar to that of Bianchi for IEEE 802.11 DCF only in the use of a per user Markov model to capture the state of each user at each moment in time. The key assumptions to enable this important simplification and the coupling of the per user Markov models are however different, as a result of the very different designs of the 802.15.4 and 802.11 carrier sensing mechanisms. The performance predicted by the analytical model is very close to that obtained by simulation. Throughput and energy consumption analysis is then performed by using the model for a range of scenarios. Some design guidelines are derived to set the 802.15.4 parameters as function of the network requirements.  相似文献

The radio-frequency identification (RFID) concept is expanded to millimeter-wave frequencies and millimeter-wave identification (MMID) in this paper. The MMID concept and a comparison with UHF RFID are presented, showing the limitations and benefits of MMID. Three feasible applications are suggested for MMID, which are: (1) wireless mass memory; (2) an automatic identification system with pointing functionality; and (3) transponder communication with automotive radar. To demonstrate the feasibility of the MMID system, experimental results for both downlink and backscattering-based uplink are presented at 60 GHz.  相似文献

一种IEEE 802.16中快速有效的冲突解决算法   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
IEEE 802.16宽带无线接入系统在其上行媒体接入控制层采用时,分复用和资源竞争与预留的方式进行接入,各用户站(SS)之间存在着竞争与冲突,这将导致系统性能下降。该文针对SS在碰撞以后的冲突解决过程提出了一种快速有效的冲突解决算法动态退避控制(Dynamical Backoff Control,DBC)算法。在该算法中,基站(BS)通过预测下一个上行帧中将会出现的带宽请求报文数,动态地控制SS的退避范围,以增大每帧中成功发送的带宽请求报文数,从而提高MAC层的数据吞吐,降低SS的平均接入延迟。利用OPNET对DBC和二进制指数退避两种算法进行了仿真。仿真结果显示DBC算法对系统性能有一定的改善和提高。  相似文献

Protocol-aided channel equalization in wireless ATM   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
We study the equalization problem in time division multiple access wireless asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) systems. Aiming at minimizing the overhead associated with equalization, we propose a protocol-aided channel equalization (PACE) approach for wireless ATM. Specifically, the medium access control (MAC) and data link control (DLC) protocols are exploited to provide known ATM cell headers to the receiver at the base station. A blind channel estimation-decision feedback equalizer (BCE-DFE) algorithm is developed for uplink data transmissions. There are two advantages of the BCE-DFE algorithm: the elimination of training symbols for uplink data bursts and the removal of channel estimation error propagation suffered by conventional block equalization schemes. Simulation results show the BCE-DFE has a robust performance for wireless ATM uplink data transmissions over fast time-varying channels  相似文献

The design of an efficient MAC protocol is of paramount interest for the definition of a wireless ATM (WATM) access. In the case of TDMA-TDD WATM access, the current trend in the standardization bodies is to adopt frames of fixed duration, whose slots are shared among uplink and downlink connections under the control of a MAC scheduler located in the base station. In this paper, we first compare polling and contention techniques, in order to identify the best access scheme to serve ATM connections. Then, since the knowledge of the queue status of the portable terminals can be used by the centralized scheduler to increase the efficiency of the slot assignment procedure, we propose different algorithms to code the buffer occupancy status. Moreover, we compare their performance by considering two different scenarios; the first loaded with ON-OFF sources served by nrt-VBR ATM connections, and the second with TCP/IP sources served by UBR ATM connections. The results show the superiority of the contention access and the advantages of the buffer status notification for the scheduler at the base station  相似文献
