As Intelligent Transport System (ITS) applications are diversified and amount of ITS data increases, high throughput and reliability are required in next-generation V2X communications. In order to meet such increased throughput and reliability requirements, IEEE 802.11bd, the next-generation V2X communication standard, has commenced standard development. One of the main features of IEEE 802.11bd is a 20-MHz bandwidth transmission. In this paper, a novel wide-bandwidth channel access scheme in next-generation Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN)-based vehicular communications is proposed. The proposed scheme is designed to provide fairness with other ITS devices and channel efficiency considering adjacent channel interference. By using the proposed scheme, through extensive simulations, it is verified that, while satisfying the fairness requirement with other ITS devices, the channel access delay of wide-bandwidth packet transmission can be optimized.
Featured Application: IoT devices with wireless LAN (WLAN) communication.Abstract: In this paper, we propose a delay-and power-efficient, multi-user, low-power wireless local area network (WLAN) communication scheme for Internet of Things (IoT) WLAN devices. Extremely low-power operation is one of the key requirements of emerging IoT devices. However, the current duty-cycle-based power saving approach may incur large access delay times owing to the trade-offs between the power consumption and the access delay. In order to reduce this delay and enhance the power-saving performance, wake-up receiver-based schemes have been proposed. However, because wake-up receiver-based schemes do not consider multiuser operation in dense communication environments, large delays are inevitable in the case of multiuser operation. In order to provide extremely low-power operation and under 1-mW standby power with reduced delay, we employed the optimized multiuser transmission scheduling of IEEE 802.11ax in the proposed scheme and proper enhanced distributed channel access (EDCA) parameter settings. This is with the aim to reduce the delay caused by long wake-up times, and to avoid collisions caused by simultaneous transmission in uplink multiuser scenario. By using the proposed scheme, simultaneous IoT communication with multiple mobile IoT devices is possible while providing low-power operation. Simulation results verified the outstanding delay performance of the proposed scheme.
