Simulation conditions • Ns-3 simulator with channel module from [1] • CSMA with contention window adaptation • TDMA with static slot sizes: equal for slaves, proportionally bigger for repeaters • Static IP routing • Poisson traffic generation • Uplink scenario: all slaves -> master • “All layers” simulation of G.hn [1] F.

Conclusions • Different behaviour of CSMA and TDMA for varying offered traffic • Adaptive layer switching to reach performance boundaries • Lower delay in CSMA for big networks with repeaters • Fair delay for “islands” in TDMA • Higher throughput in TDMA for higher offered traffic • Importance of network conditions (topology, number of nodes, offered traffic, traffic direction, layer 4 protocol, setup of ARP, setup of MAC, PHY, etc.) for performant switching Adaptive Layer Switching for PLC Network with Repeaters

Topology with Repeater Adaptive Layer Switching for PLC Network with Repeaters
Switching from CSMA/CA to TDMA with Repeaters • for Slave: stop CSMA/CA transmissions after received switch command until next MAC cycle • for Repeater: retransmit switch command in CSMA/CA until ACK received or until next MAC cycle -> stop CSMA Nodes may transmit Switch to TDMA CSMA/CA TDMA 40 ms 40 ms R1 Ri RN Scheduling information Adaptive Layer Switching for PLC Network with Repeaters
