A Multiple Access Scheme for Wireless Data Communications in Local Area

This paper proposes reservation-based multiple access with variable frame length (RMAV) which is a new multiple access scheme for indoor and outdoor wireless data communications. RMAV is based on the slot reservation scheme and adopts a frame structure with variable frame length. The frame length increases as the number of active terminals and/or the system load increases. As a result, RMAV is adapted to the changes in the traffic pattern, and it offers short delay in light load conditions and high throughput in heavy load conditions. The performance of RMAV is evaluated by simulations. In addition, it is compared with the performance of PRMA(packet reservation multiple access).
