In this paper, a CSSMA/AI MAC protocol in packet CDMA network is presented. The main features of this protocol are the code status sensing and reservation for reducing the packet collision. The base station broadcasts the code status on a frame-by-frame basis just before the beginning of each preamble transmission, and the mobile station transmits a preamble for reserving a code based on the received code status. After having transmitted the preamble, the mobile station listens to the downlink of the selected code and waits the base station reply. If this reply indicates that the code has been correctly acquired, it continues the packet transmission for the rest of the frame. If there are other packets waiting for transmission, the base station broadcasts the status of the code as reserved, and the mobile station transmits a packet on a reserved code for the successive frames.

Future microcellular systems will require distributed network control. A packet-switched network is suitable for this requirement. The packet reservation multiple access(PRMA) is a Reservation-ALOHA like protocol for wireless terminals to transmit packet speech to a base station. It allows spatially distributed users in cellular systems to transmit packeted voice and data to a common base station using a shared channel. In the existing PRMA, the problem is that the voice packets may collide with the data packets due to simultaneous channel access. the problem may be a major performance degradation factor to a voice and data mixed system. We propose a new PRMA method that integrates voice and data traffic efficiently by resolving the collision problem between data and voice packets. The proposed PRMA method gives a performance improvement than the existing PRAMA method in terms of voice packet dropping probability and data delay characteristic. From analytic results, we can confirm that the proposed PRMA method show a performance improvement than the existing PRMA protocol.

The voice traffic is one of the most important real-time objects in WATM(Wireless Asynchronous Transfer Mode) networks. In this paper, we propose a new MAC(Medium Access'Control) protocol for the efficienttransmission of voice traffic over WATM networks in the multimedia environment and compare the performanceto existing similar protocols. The new protocol separates the reservation slot period for voice and that for data toguarantee some level of QoS(Quality of Service) in voice traffic. This is denoted by a slot assignment functiondepending on the frame size. According to the characteristics of voice traffic which is repeatedly in silent states,the protocol allocates voice reservation request slots dynamically with respect to the number of silent(off state)voice sources and also sends the first block of talkspurt restarted after silent period with a reservation requestslot to reduce the access delay.The simulation results show that the proposed protocol has better performance than Slotted Aloha in bandwidthefficiency, and can serve a certain level of QoS by the given slot assignment function even when the number ofvoice terminals varies dynamically. This means we can observe that the new MAC protocol is much better thanthe NC-PRMA(None Collision-Packet Reservation Multiple Access) protocol.

A medium access control protocol is proposed for integrated voice and data services in the packet CDMA network with a small coverage. Uplink channels are composed of time slots and multiple spreading codes for each slot. This protocol gives higher access priority to the delay-sensitive voice traffic than to the data traffic. During a talkspurt, voice terminals reserve a spreading code to transmit multiple voice packets. On the other hand, whenever generating a data packet, data terminals transmit a packet based on the status Information of spreading codes in the current slot, which is received from base station. In this protocol, voice packet does not come into collision with data packet. Therefore, this protocol can increase the maximum number of voice terminals.

일대다 형상을 갖는 통신시스템에서 많이 고려되는 예약 알로하 방식 매체접속제어 프로토콜의 성능은 예약 채널과 데이터 채널의 분배 양식에 의해 달라진다. 본 논문에서는 이 프로토콜을 직렬 2단 대기열 모델로 근사화하고, 데이터의 지연을 성능 척도로 하여 이를 줄이는 세가지 채널 할당 방식을 제시하였다. 그리고 이들에 대한 모의실험을 통해 그 동작 특성을 규명하고 성능을 평가하였다. 그 결과 이들의 성능은 트래픽의 특성, 특히 데이터 길이의 분산에 크게 의존하며, 일반적으로는 데이터에 우선권을 주는 방식이 우수하나, 데이터 길이의 분산이 큰 경우에는 비례배분 할당 방식이 우수한 것으로 평가되었다.

Underwater wireless network can be useful in various fields such as underwater environment observation, catastrophe prevention, ocean resources exploration, ocean organism research, and vessel sinking exploration. We need to develop an efficient design for Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol to improve multiple data communication in underwater environment. Aloha protocol is one of the basic and simple protocols, but it has disadvantage such as collision occurs oftenly in communication. If there is collision occured in RF communication, problem can be solved by re-sending the data, but using low frequency in underwater, the re-transmission has difficulties due to slow bit-rate. So, Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) based MAC protocol is going to be used to avoid collisions, but if there is no data to send in existing TDMA, time slot should not be used. Therefore, this paper proposes dynamic TDMA protocol mechanism with reducing the time slots by sending short "I Have No Data" (IHND) message, if there is no data to transmit. Also, this paper presents mathematic analysis model in relation to data throughput, channel efficiency and verifies performance superiority by comparing the existing TDMA protocols.

In general, TDMA and FDMA have been used for multiple access communication methods. Recently. However, ALOHA and CSMA protocols came to exist as new schemes for VSAT data networks and LANs, respectively. These schemes are proven to be effective for packet switched communication systems that has bursty traffic but packet collisions. In this paper we analyze capture statistics arising from fading channels in packet radio communication systems in the context of ALOHA protocol. We derive general results of the exact form of capture probabilities and present numerical data for wide range of fading parameters. Since the capture probabilities are found to approach zero when the number of transmitted signals become larger, we are able to determine the achievable channel throughput by a least squares fitting of an exponential-type function to the probabilities.

One of the most important factors that decide the overall performance of RFID system is anti-collision algorithm. By enhancing the anti-collision algorithm, we can increase the number of RFID tags that can be processed in unit time. Two anti-collision algorithms are most widely prevailed: one is ALOHA-based protocol and the other is a binary tree walking method, but these are still under research. In this paper, we suggest an anti-collision algorithm named AAC(Address Allocating and Calling) using pre-distributed random address, which is much faster and more efficient than existing ones. Finally, we evaluate our scheme using mathematical analysis and computer simulation.

In this article, a new Aloha-based tag identification protocol is presented to improve the reading efficiency of the EPC C1 Gen2-based UHF RFID system. Collision detection (CD) plays a vital role in tag identification process which determines the efficiency of anti-collision protocols since most Aloha-based protocols optimize the incoming frame length based on the collisions in current frame. Existing CD methods are ineffective in identifying collision, resulting in a degradation of identification performance. Our proposed algorithm adopts an enhanced CD (ECD) scheme based on the EPC C1 Gen2 standard to optimize identification performance. The ECD method can realize timely and effective CD by detecting the pulse width of the randomly sent by tags. According to the ECD, the reader detects the slot distribution and predicts tag cardinality in every collision slot. The tags involved in each collision slot are identified by independently assigned sub-frames. A large number of numerical results show that the proposed solution is superior to other existing anti-collision protocols in various performance evaluation metrics.

In this paper, we propose an improved anti-collision algorithm. We have designed an anti-collision unit using this algorithm for the 18000-6 Type C Class 1 Generation 2 standard (Gen2). The Gen2 standard uses a Q-algorithm for incremental method on the Dynamic Slot-Aloha algorithm. It has basically enhanced performance over the Slot-Aloha algorithm. Unfortunately, there are several non-clarified parts: initial value. If an incorrect value is selected, it causes degradation in performance. To increase throughput and system efficiency, and to decrease tag identification time, we propose an improved anti-collision algorithm. prorosed Q algorithm has an increment of 5% of system efficiency and a decrement of 9% of tag identification time.
