Towards Scalable MAC Design for High-Speed Wireless LANs
The growing popularity of wireless LANs has spurred rapid evolution in physical-layer technologies and wide deployment in diverse environments. The ability of protocols in wireless data networks to cater to a large number of users, equipped with high-speed wireless devices, becomes ever critical. In this paper, we propose a token-coordinated random access MAC (TMAC) framework that scales to var...
متن کاملReliable multicast MAC protocol for wireless LANs
Reliable multicast in wireless applications is gaining importance with the development in technology. Applications like multicast file transfer, distributed computing, chat and whiteboard applications need reliability. However, due to mobility and wireless channel characteristics, obtaining reliability in data transfer is a difficult and challenging task. IEEE 802.11 does not support reliable m...
متن کاملDesign of Scalable and Multicast Capable Cut-Through Switches for High-Speed LANs
High-speed switches play an important role in building switched LANs. Among different techniques used in switch design, cut-through switching promises short latency delivery and thus is well suited to distributed/parallel applications. The back pressure flow control of cut-through switching also prevents packet loss due to buffer overflow. This paper presents an incremental switch design based ...
متن کاملDesign for Interworking between High-speed Portable Internet and Wireless LANs using different AAA protocols
With the rapid growth of wireless technologies, there will be coexistent heterogeneous wireless networks environment within a few years. For example, there may be coexistent current wireless LAN systems based on widely available IEEE 802.11 and a wireless system based on proprietary wireless standard with different AAA mechanisms such as RADIUS and Diameter. In case of being coexistent the hete...
متن کاملAn Energy Efficient MAC Protocol for Wireless LANs
This paper presents an optimization of the power saving mechanism in the Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) in IEEE 802.11 standard. In the 802.11 power saving mode specified for DCF, time is divided into so-called beacon intervals. At the start of each beacon interval, each node in the power saving mode periodically wakes up for a duration called the ATIM Window. The nodes are required to...
