Abstract

The WiMedia Alliance has specified a Distributed Medium Access Control (D-MAC) protocol based on UWB for high speed wireless home networks and WPANs. In this paper, we propose a novel cooperative communication protocol adaptive to current UWB link transmission rate. The proposed cooperative communication protocol has compatibility with current WiMedia D-MAC and Wireless USB standard and is executed at each device according to a Relay Node Selection (RNS) criterion.

본 논문에서는 UWB 기술 기반 WiMedia Distributed Medium Access Control (D-MAC) 표준 프로토콜에 적용할 수 있는 협력 통신 프로토콜을 제안한다. 이를 위해 무선 채널 상태에 따라 변화하는 UWB 링크 전송 속도에 적응적인 릴레이 노드 선정 알고리즘을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 UWB 링크에 적응적인 릴레이 통신 프로토콜은 분산적인 D-MAC 표준 기술 및 무선 USB 기술과 호환성을 갖고, 각 디바이스에서 독립적으로 실행되는 Relay Node Selection (RNS) 기준에 따라 실행된다.
