“…Currently, some valuable studies have paid attention to performance analysis of 1901 protocol for PLC networks [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]. However, all these works [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22] do not consider the impact of physical layer's retransmission protocols [23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30] on 1901's MAC performance. Furthermore, how IEEE 1901 protocol affect the energy consumption in PLC networks, and whether 1901 protocol has bound performance are also neglected in the above works.…”

“…In practical network scenario, when the station occupies the PLC channel (through 1901's CSMA/CA mechanism) and attempts to transmit its packet, it begins to execute retransmission protocols 1 [23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][41][42][43]. In the basic ARQ, for decoding, the receiver uses the packet received in the current attempt fragment only, and discards all the erroneously received copies of this packet.…”

Power-line communication (PLC) is a promising communication technology of constructing IoT (internet of things) systems, and it employs IEEE 1901 as its medium access control (MAC) protocol. Current studies about IEEE 1901 MAC performance analysis do not consider the influence of physical layer's retransmission protocols, i.e., ARQ (automatic repeat request) and HARQ-CC (hybrid ARQ with chase combining). Moreover, how 1901 protocol affect the energy consumption in PLC networks, and whether 1901 protocol has bound performance are also unsolved in these existing works. Focusing on the above problems, we put forward a cross-layered theoretical model to insightfully analyze 1901 protocol, where the impacts of physical layer's retransmission protocols (ARQ and HARQ-CC), channel fading modes and practical configurations (buffer size, finite traffic load, etc.) are comprehensively taken into consideration in the modeling process. On this basis, we derive the closed-form expressions of 1901 MAC metrics considering retransmission protocols. Furthermore, we construct an energy consumption model, and provide the bound performance analysis for 1901 protocol. Finally, we evaluate the performance of 1901 protocol under different retransmission protocols and system parameters, and verify the proposed crosslayered theoretical model.

“…However, its major shortcoming is that the data packet decoding process is time-consuming, so it is not the best choice for packets with a large number of errors. Furthermore, an improved ARQ mechanism was presented in [7]. Their mechanism can obtain accurate time and position of errors, which makes it different from the previously reported solutions, and can be used for timely and accurate message transmission.…”

The reliability of information transmission has a significant influence on network performance, so it has attracted extensive attention from researchers. Many error control mechanisms have been designed and proposed in order to improve the reliability of transmission. However, during transmission in wireless networks, high bit error rate and burst errors often occur, which poses great challenges in the design of error control mechanisms. The existing mechanisms suffer from a problem of either poor error correction ability or waste of network resources. The primary aim of this study is to develop an error control mechanism based on Reed-Solomon (RS) codes, which encodes packets using RS codes, and a re-encoding algorithm is designed for reducing the coded packet length. The proposed error control mechanism can not only reduce the number of redundant bits in the transmission process but also improve the error correction ability as much as possible when burst errors occur. Therefore, both the error correction ability and the network utility are considered in this work. The proposed mechanism was verified through theoretic analysis and by experiments using the NS2 simulator. The experimental results verified the error control ability and throughput performance of the proposed mechanism.

“…For this purpose, industry and academia have developed power-line communication (PLC) networks as another promising technology for constructing IoT systems [ 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 ]. The reliable PLC network generally introduces some network coding schemes [ 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 ] into its link layer to ensure communication reliability, and the most typical one is the AqRQ (automatic repeat request) scheme. It allows a station to retransmit a data packet several times at link layer to enhance the received probability.…”

Power-line communication (PLC) networks have been increasingly used for constructing industrial IoT (internet of things) and home networking systems due to their low-cost installation and broad coverage feature. To guarantee the transmission reliability, ARQ (automatic repeat request) scheme is introduced into the link layer of reliable PLC networks, which allows the retransmission of a data frame several times so that it has a higher probability to be correctly received. However, current studies of performance analysis for PLC MAC (medium access control) protocol (i.e., IEEE 1901) do not take into account of the impact of ARQ scheme. To resolve this problem, we propose an analytical model to investigate the MAC performance of IEEE 1901 protocol for reliable PLC networks with ARQ scheme. In the modeling process, we first establish a PLC channel model to reflect the impacts of PLC channel types (containing Rayleigh fading and Log-normal fading), additive non-Gaussian noise feature and ARQ scheme on data transmission at link layer. Next, we employ Renewal theory and Queueing dynamics to capture the transmission attempt behavior of executing IEEE 1901 protocol in the unsaturated environment with finite transit buffer size. On the basis of combining these two models, we derive the closed-form expressions of 1901 MAC metrics considering the influence of the ARQ scheme. Furthermore, we prove that the proposed analytical model has the convergence property. Finally, we evaluate the MAC performance of 1901 protocol for reliable PLC networks with ARQ scheme and verify the proposed analytical model.
