VDL(VHF Data Link) Mode E uses TDMA(Time Division Multiple Access) based aeronautical communication technologies for airborne environments. In the VDL Mode E, aircraft uses RR(Reservation Requests) slot to request data slot. However, RR needs a long guard time, since aircraft communication spans a considerable distance. The more number of aircrafts causes a larger amount of guard times which can make a throughput decreased. In this paper, we propose an enhanced MAC to reduce the guard time by using the distance information of aircraft. The ground station sends management data including time stamp. And then all aircraft can measure their distance from the ground station.

In tactical environment, tactical wireless networks are generally comprised of Tactical MANETs(T-MANETs) or Tactical WMNs(T-WMNs). The most important services in tactical network are voice and low rate data such as command control and situation awareness. These data should be forwarded via multi-hop in tactical wireless networks. Urgent and mission-critical data should be protected in this environment, so QoS(Quality of Service) must be guaranteed for specific type of traffic for satisfying the requirement of a user. In IEEE 802.11s, TDMA-based MAC protocol, MCCA(MCF Controlled Channel Access), has a function of resource reservation. But 802.11s protocol can not guarantee the end-to-end QoS, because it only supports reservation with neighbors. In this paper, we propose the routing protocol, R-HWMP(Reservation-based HWMP) which has the resource reservation to support the end-to-end QoS. The proposed protocol can reserve the channel slots and find optimal path in T-WMNs. We analyzed the performance of the proposed protocol and showed that end-to-end QoS is guaranteed using NS-2 simulation.

음파를 이용한 수중 센서 네트워크는 지상에서의 무선 네트워크 환경과 다르게 긴 전파 지연과 낮은 전송 속도를 가진다. 따라서 기존의 선 네트워크에서 사용되는 프로토콜을 수중 센서 네트워크에 적용될 경우 매우 제한적이며 비효율적으로 사용될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 수중 센서 네트워크에서 에너지 효율과 처리율 향상을 위한 MAC 프로토콜을 제안한다. 제안된 프로토콜은 슬롯 기반의 경쟁 기법을 사용하며 데이타 패킷을 전송하기 위해 사전에 슬롯을 예약하게 된다. 제안된 프로토콜에서는 경쟁방식에 의하여 노드간의 충돌이 발생할 수 있으나 예약방식에 의하여 인접 노드의 채널을 미리 인지함으로써 충돌을 최소화하고 노드의 불필요한 에너지 소모를 줄임과 동시에 처리율 향상을 가져온다. 제안된 프로토콜에 대한 성능을 평가하기 위해 시뮬레이션을 수행하며 소모된 에너지, 충돌횟수, 채널효율, 처리율과 전송지연시간에 대하여 평가한다. 또한 기존의 MAC 프로토콜과 비교함으로써 제안된 프로토콜이 기존의 프로토콜에 비해 성능이 우수함을 보인다.

This paper applies WiMedia UWB network into a wireless ship area network (WSAN) so as to support high-quality multimedia services on board and reliable instrument control information as well, since the need for mixed high-quality video traffic and shipboard control data traffic is essential for a high-cost valued digital ship. Thus, in this paper, prioritized contention access (PCA) and distributed reservation protocol (DRP) based on WiMedia UWB (ECMA-368) MAC protocols are combined and proposed to such mixed traffic environment, by varying the portions of superframe according to traffic type. It is shown that the proposed WiMedia UWB MAC protocol can provide reliable mixed video and shipboard control data traffic as well.

For provisioning the best effort service, the IEEE 802.16 Wireless MAN standard employs a MAC scheme based on reservation ALOHA. In the MAC scheme, a subscriber station, after attempting a resource request, waits for a resource grant during a prescribed period rather than an explicit acknowledgement. In this paper, we propose a MAC scheme for improving delay performance, where we control the lifetime of a request to prevent excessive grants and distribute residual resource according to a round robin. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme significantly improves the mean delay performance.

This paper proposes a MAC protocol for real-time VBR (rt-VBR) services in wireless ATM networks. The proposed protocol is characterized by a contention-based mechanism of the reservation request, a contention-free polling scheme for transferring the dynamic parameters, and a priority scheme of the slot allocation. The design objective of the proposed protocol is to guarantee the real-time constraint of rt-VBR traffic. The scheduling algorithm uses a priority scheme based on the maximum cell transfer delay parameter. The wireless terminal establishes an rt-VBR connection to the base station with a contention-based scheme. The base station scheduler allocates a dynamic parameter minislot to the wireless terminal for transferring the residual lifetime and the number of requesting slots as the dynamic parameters. Based on the received dynamic parameters, the scheduler allocates the uplink slots to the wireless terminal with the most stringent delay requirement. The simulation results show that the proposed protocol can guarantee the delay constraint of rt-VBR services along with its cell loss rate significantly reduced.

본 논문에서는 우선 순위 기반의 예약 코드 다중 접속 (P-RCMA) 프로토콜을 제안한다. P-PCMA는 기존의 RCMA 프로토콜의 음성 트래픽 성능을 개선한다. P-RCMA는 두 개의 전력 수준을 유지하고 패킷 전송을 위해 공유된 코드를 경쟁하는 시점에 트래픽의 전송 특성을 고려한다. P-RCMA는 기지국 수신 단에서 전력 세기에 따른 캡쳐 효과를 이용하여 데이터 패킷보다는 음성 예약 패킷에 우선순위를 부여한다. 성능 분석은 EPA(equilibrium point analysis) 방법과 시뮬레이션을 이용하고 성능 척도로 음성 패킷 손실 확률 (voice packet dropping probability) 과 평균 데이터 패킷 전송 지연 (average data packet transmission delay)을 사용한다.

In the IEEE 802.16 Wireless MAN standard, the best effort service class is ranked on the lowest position in priority so that only scarce resource may be available for it. Also, the best effort service is usually assisted by a MAC scheme based on reservation ALOHA without explicit acknowledgement. However, the standard only specifies the skeleton of the MAC scheme. In this paper, we propose some rules to specify the indefinite part of the MAC scheme as well as to improve the throughput and delay performance of the MAC scheme. As generic rules for demanding and granting resource, we first propose non-gated exhaustive, gated exhaustive, non-gated limited, and gated limited demand rules, and deficient and full grant rules. Secondly, we propose grant regulation rules, identified as replacement and lifetime rules, to avoid excessive grant incurred by not giving acknowledgement. Noting the residual resource is inflated by adopting a grant regulation rule, we finally propose a rule for investing the residual resource to a subscriber station. Simulation results confirm that a combination of proposed rules improves the performance of the MAC scheme.

In this paper, we introduce a reliable, scalable, and cost-effective switchless wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) network based on a quality-of-service supporting reservation-based medium access control (MAC) protocol. The protocol not only provides both packet and circuit switching but also supports multicasting. The network efficiency is significantly increased by spatially reusing wavelengths and exploiting multiple free spectral ranges (FSRs) of arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) employed in the architecture. We have demonstrated the feasibility of this architecture by simulating in $Optsim^{TM}$.
