Title
Performance evaluation of channel reservation schemes for reservation-based MAC protocols with different priorities
Abstract
This paper considers the problem of channel reservation schemes for reservation-based MAC protocols with different priorities in wireless communication networks. A framework for designing such channel reservation protocols based on p-persistent is introduced. This framework allows us to explore several different prioritization mechanisms which are devised to serve different prioritization policies or requirements. This leads to the development of five channel reservation schemes, namely, FPT+MP, FPT+MLT, FPT+SCS, FPT+PCP and FPT+HFF. The average number of successful reservations for users of different priorities is evaluated as a primary performance measure. Unlike other previous works where different priorities exhibit strict differentiation, our success ratio (γ) is defined to illustrate how much different priorities are differentiated. In doing so, we seek for a channel reservation scheme that can satisfy the required γ, while maximizing the channel utilization. Numerical results show that the combined scheme of FPT+MP and FPT+SCS schemes is the most effective scheme, possessing all desirable key features.
