Contention-Based Medium Access Control

Zhang, Ruonan; Cai, Lin; Pan, Jianping

Pages: 43 –76

[Distributed resource management has several advantages such as simplicity, scalability, and robustness against topology dynamics thanks to its distributed nature, as discussed in Chap. 1 Most distributed MAC schemes are based on the principles of carrier sense multiple access (CSMA). In this...

Resource Reservation

Zhang, Ruonan; Cai, Lin; Pan, Jianping

Pages: 77 –101

[Distributed resource reservation has attracted great interest from academia, industry, and standards organizations thanks to its advantages in guaranteed QoS provisioning. Given the shared wireless media, contention-free protocols rely on additional coordination among competing stations. With...

Hybrid Medium Access for Multimedia Services

Zhang, Ruonan; Cai, Lin; Pan, Jianping

Pages: 103 –132

[To reserve or not for bursty video traffic over wireless access networks has been a long-debated issue. Reservation can ensure QoS provisioning at the cost of lower resource utilization. Contention-based MAC is more flexible and efficient in sharing resources for bursty traffic by a higher...
