Objectives • Conform to the QoS Baseline Proposal [1] • Unambiguously define a robust, optimized hybrid access method for use in the contention period [2] • Specify a hybrid coordination function to facilitate the reduction in conformance levels [3], [4], [5] • Analyze, model, and simulate the proposed method to minimize risk and gain confidence in the proposed solution [6] • Compare benefits and advantages with respect to other leading EDCF proposals [3], [6], [7]
Introduction • Texas Instruments Proposal • Introduces contention-free access mechanisms and contention-free transfer rules into the CP • Enhances contention access in the CP by adaptively adjusting permission probabilities with channel load changes (p-DCF) • Shows p-DCF may be implemented via probability or backoff • Unifies contention-free and contention access in the CP • Simulation Results • Demonstrates improved EDCF performance and robustness are achieved using p-DCF access mechanism
Contention-Based Access:Simulation Result Smaller CWmin (higher priority) produced longer delays Operation “recovered” from congestion as frames exceeding retry counts were discarded
