چکیده

By using experimental measurements of smart grid applications compliant with IEC 61850 in trace-driven WiMAX simulations, we show that the WiMAX MAC protocol efficiency decreases as a function of the number of stations. To avoid this shortcoming, we propose and analyze a novel WiMAX MAC protocol for smart grid applications, which uses lattice correlators to improve the throughput-delay performance significantly. For the considered configurations, the obtained maximum throughput of the proposed MAC protocol outperforms the current WiMAX MAC protocol by up to 41%.

Dcrs: a Dynamic Contention Resolution Scheme for Wimax Networks

IEEE 802.16e has received wide attention as it supports high data rates and incredible pervasive connectivity with high Quality of Service (QoS) capabilities. To support QoS, many Bandwidth REQuest (BW-REQ) mechanisms are suggested in the literature for resource reservation in mobile WiMAX networks. There are chances for performance degradation with increase in the number of requests. QoS can b...

Efficiency-driven selection of bandwidth request mechanism in broadband wireless access networks

To avoid collisions in WiMAX networks, the connections in Subscriber Stations (SSs) use a request–grant process to acquire transmission resources from the Base Station (BS). In accordance with the IEEE 802.16 standard, the request–grant process is accomplished using either a unicast polling method or a contention request method. In WiMAX systems, the number of bandwidth-request (BR) slots per f...
