Abstract

IEEE 802.15.3 HR-WPAN is designed to enable wireless connectivity of high-speed, low-power, low-cost multimedia-capable portable consumer electronic devices. For quality of service, the standard specifies the use of TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access). However, during low contention TDMA gives much lower channel utilization and higher delays than CSMA (Carrier Sensing Multiple Access) because in TDMA, a node can transmit only during its scheduled time slots whereas in CSMA, nodes can transmit at any time as long as there is no contention. By mixing CSMA and TDMA, Hybrid MAC becomes more robust to timing failures, time-varying channel conditions, slot assignment failures and topology changes than a stand-alone TDMA.

IEEE 802.15.3 HR-PAN은 PHY와 MAC으로 구성되어 있다. 그 중 MAC 기술은 부족한 채널 자원을 관리하는 중요한 역할을 한다. 기존 IEEE 802.15.3의 MAC 프로토콜에서 각 DEV에게 채널을 할당하는 방법은 네트워크의 상태나 주위 환경과 무관하게 고정된 형태이다. 이 논문에서 제안한 Hybrid MAC 프로토콜은 IEEE 802.15.3 HR-WPAN 환경에서 네트워크의 상태에 따라 TDMA 방식과 CSMA 방식을 유동적으로 사용할 수 있게 된다. 이 논문에서는 TDMA의 장점인 충돌 없는 전송시간의 보장과 CSMA의 장점인 높은 채널 사용률을 결합하여 802.15.3의 standard MAC보다 보다 높은 전송률을 보이는 Hybrid MAC을 제안한다.
