A Conflict Avoidance Scheme for WiMedia Wireless Home Networks

We propose an efficient resource reservation scheme for UWB (Ultrawideband) WPAN (Wireless Personal Area Network) with D-MAC (Distributed Medium Access Control). Since the WiMedia D-MAC supporting DRP (Distributed Reservation Protocol) scheme causes lots of conflicts due to failure of beacon detecti...

description We propose an efficient resource reservation scheme for UWB (Ultrawideband) WPAN (Wireless Personal Area Network) with D-MAC (Distributed Medium Access Control). Since the WiMedia D-MAC supporting DRP (Distributed Reservation Protocol) scheme causes lots of conflicts due to failure of beacon detection in wireless channel environment, overall performances of the WiMedia D-MAC can be deteriorated. Therefore, we propose Relay DRP protocol, which makes a relay path to avoid DRP conflicts or harsh channel conditions through cooperative relay transmission scheme and is compliant with the current WiMedia D-MAC protocol. Simulation results demonstrate performance improvements of the proposed method for throughput and energy consumption.
