“…Many existing shared-media LAN/MAN designs such as DQDB, 1-4 FDDI, 5,6 CBRMA, 7 and Fast Ethernet 8 have been or are being modified so that they can carry multimedia traffic and interwork with ATM networks. However, since the existing sharedmedia LANs were designed basically for data communications, the modifications to make them suitable for multimedia traffic in the ATM environment make them inefficient as well as quite complex to implement.…”

This paper presents the architecture and performance of a new shared media ATM LAN protocol known as pipelined-access local ATM network (PLAN) which has high performance and operates in native ATM mode for efficient and simpler interworking with backbone ATM networks. PLAN is a reservation type bidirectional broadcast bus system protocol in which overhead due to bus propagation delay is limited to a total of twice the end-to-end propagation delay per transmission frame irrespective of the number of stations on the bus. It is designed to (i) support multimedia traffic, (ii) dynamically allocate bandwidth to various types of traffic and provide fair media access to stations, (iii) provide throughput close to 100%, (iv) operate at high bit rates and (v) use packets of ATM cell size and format for interoperability with wide-area ATM networks.In this paper we present the architecture, analysis and performance of the proposed PLAN protocol under various multimedia traffic conditions. The results show that its throughput approaches 100%, is independent of traffic composition and increases slowly with bit rate. It decreases only slightly as the bus length and/or number of stations increase. The proposed PLAN protocol is seen to be well suited for high-speed multimedia ATM LAN and MAN applications in the ATM networking environment.

“…Time is slotted with unity dura tion so that the channel utilization is the same as the network throughput. By using separate sub-channels for reservation, we eliminate any additional overhead due to reservation slots in the transmission sub-channel, unlike various proposed protocols such as CRMA protocol, S++ protocol, and CBRMA++ protocol [1,2,14]. Hence, all available bandwidth of the transmission channel is used for data transmission except the unavoidable two-bit flag field and node addresses in each slot.…”

In this paper, we propose a new medium access control (MAC) layer protocol, called Optical Reservation Multiple Ac cess (ORMA), which is suitable for data traffic on a folded bus high-speed MANs and LANs. Its main feature is an opticallCser vation technique, to allow stations to reserve transmission slots, which is attractive for use in high-speed networks. Unlike tradi tional protocols where reservation is mostly done using software, ORMA performs its reservation function using simple and effi cient optical hardware circuits. A complete description of the ORMA protocol is given. Then, ORMA is shown to achieve high throughput and small transmission delays while preserving the fairness of the whole network.
