Performance Evaluation of a Packet Reservation Media Access (PRMA) Scheme for Broadband Fixed Wireless Access

چکیده
This paper introduces a packet reservation based MAC layer for broadband fixed wireless access communications. The performance of a reservation based MAC scheme is compared with the performances of Pure-ALOHA and Slotted-ALOHA MAC schemes. A simulation using OPNET Modeler is performed to compare the performance of these MAC schemes in terms of channel throughput and average packet delay.

Performance of Random Contention PRMA: A Protocol for Fixed Wireless Access
This paper introduces a packet reservation multiple access (PRMA) with random contention for fixed wireless access communications. The performance of PRMA scheme with random contention is compared with the performances of traditional PRMA under permission contention scheme. The proposed scheme is a simpler contention mechanism that does not depend on a pre-determined permission probability as P...
متن کاملC-PRMA: a Centralized Packet Reservation Multiple Access for Local Wireless Communications
Packet switched technology has been demonstrated effective in cellular radio systems with short propagation delay, not only for data but also for voice transmission. In fact, packet voice can efficiently exploit speech on-off activity to improve bandwidth utilization over TDMA. Such an approach has been first suggested in the Packet Reservation Multiple Access (PRMA) technique, an adaptation of...
متن کاملPacket Reservation Window Multiple Access for Microcellular Voice/Data Transmission
We propose a new packet reservation multiple access (PRMA) scheme for the joint transmission of voice and data traffics in a microcellular medium. The collision resolution protocol within the system is based on a modification of the window random access algorithm, which has superior properties compared to the conventional slotted Aloha. The proposed algorithm, which we call packet reservation w...
متن کاملPerformance of CDMA/PRMA as an Access Technique for Integrated Services in a UMTS High Altitude Platform System
High Altitude platforms (HAPs) have gained a great interest in recent years. HAP systems will be globally in nature but nationally in service provision. They will deliver IMT-2000 mobile and fixed wireless access using the proposed IMT2000 terrestrial component radio transmission technologies and protocols. Under the above considerations, in this paper the performance of a MAC protocol based on...
متن کاملA Variable Partition Duplex Scheme with Enlarged Reservation Duration on Packet Reservation Multiple Access Protocol ∗
SUMMARY A variable partition duplex scheme on packet reservation multiple access protocol (VPD-PRMA) is analyzed in this paper. We assume a four-state speech model for a conversational pair and successfully obtain performance measures by approximate Markovian analysis. Analytical results show that they quite fit simulation results; and VPD-PRMA can get higher statistical multiplexing gain than ...
