文摘

The proposed MAC protocol guarantees QoS requirements of all subscribers as described in the ISO/IEEE 11073 standards. A slot allocation scheme, priority classification, admission control mechanism, and channel allocation with bit error rate reduction mechanism are described to ensure QoS. The proposed MAC protocol is compared with standard technologies and recent protocols in the literature, and it achieves better results for end-to-end delay, packet loss ratio, and throughput parameters.
