A new technique for performance evaluation of random access protocols

چکیده
A new technique is proposed for performance evaluation of random access protocols. This technique is based on the idea that the service probability distribution of a particular random access protocol can be described by a phasetype distribution. By modeling the service probability distribution of a protocol into a phase-type distribution, the performance of the protocol can be evaluated using an equivalent Continuous Time Markov Chain. In this paper we demonstrate the applicability of the technique to performance evaluation of the IEEE 802.3 and the IEEE 802.11 MAC protocols. Furthermore, we provide an example of performance evaluation of a MAC protocol subject to bursty traffic models such as the Markov Modulated Poisson Process. The accuracy the results are verified by simulation.

New hierarchical protocols, SRMA-ALOHA and SRMA-Poll, are proposed for multiple random-access in wide area satellite data networks. The stations are grouped and operate in ALOHA or Poll mode, and group master stations access the channel using the SRMA scheme. The performance of protocols has been evaluated using simulations. Throughput and delays are presented for various traffic load condition...

We consider random access protocols, which provide sufficiently high performance in case of l...
متن کاملMulti-channel Medium Access Control Protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks: A Survey
Extensive researches on Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have been performed and many techniques have been developed for the data link (MAC) layer. Most of them assume single-channel MAC protocols. In the usual dense deployment of the sensor networks, single-channel MAC protocols may be deficient because of radio collisions and limited bandwidth. Hence, using multiple channels can significantly ...
