Abstract:We study a new scheme for provision of priorities within the framework of a MAC protocol which is a potential candidate of the (as yet unpublished) IEEE 802.14 standard. A comprehensive simulation study, based on real traflc traces, shows that this new method provides better protection for the high priority trafic than an earlier proposed scheme. Except for physical and MAC layer overheads, the scheme exhibits comparable behaviour to that of an Ideal Multiplexer, for traces with very diverse correlation struct… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
