This paper presents a new class of channel reservation techniques for medium access control protocols suitable for high bitrate wireless communication systems. Seven distinct channel reservation schemes are proposed, namely CFP, CAP, COP, COP+SPL, CFP+SPL, UNI and UNI+LA and their performance are analytically evaluated and compared with the existing known techniques. In the high-speed environment, transmission time is comparatively shorter than the propagation delay so that the user request outcome can not be acquire within the same reservation period. Consequently users will request only once in each reservation period. Under such an environment, it is shown that conventional reservation techniques become less effective and the proposed schemes are superior as they take both the number of active users and available slots simultaneously into their consideration while accessing the request slots.
