Protocol for integration of voice and data over frame-based PRMA

A novel protocol for the integration of voice and data over frame based packet reservation multiple access (F-PRMA) is proposed. The voice-priority scheme is employed to provide a quality-of-service (QOS) guarantee for the voice service. Numerical results indicate that a significant amount of data traffic can be supported with a much lower mean packet delay than is achieved with previous protocols, and voice capacity is also improved because it is not necessary to transmit the header message with every packet
