چکیده
In this paper, the concepts of the MAC (Medium Access Control) protocol and traffic scheduling in the radio interface, as are currently worked out in the ACTS Project Magic WAND (Wireless ATM Network Demonstrator) are presented. Since the MAC protocol is based both on reservation and contention techniques, it has been named Mobile Access Scheme based on Contention And Reservation for ATM, or MASCARA. We focus on the performance of the scheduling algorithm of ATM traffic in the radio interface.
