Abstract

WiMedia provides the data rate of up to 1Gbps, but the transmission range is restricted to approximately 10 meters. When constructing a multi-hop WiMedia network to extend its coverage, conventional hop-based routing may not guarantee satisfactorily the required QoS. We propose two QoS routing techniques for the WiMedia-based wireless mesh network. The proopsed QoS routing reflects the characteristics of TDMA-based WiMedia MAC and develops QoS extensions separately for on-demand routing and table-driven routing. Through simulations, we identify that the QoS routing shows better performance than the hop-based routing. It also turns out that the QoS on-demand routing and the QoS table-driven routing show conflicting performance results depending on the transmission power.

WiMedia에서는 최대 1Gbps의 초고속 전송이 가능하나, 디바이스 간의 전송 범위가 대략 10m 이내로 제한된다. 네트워크 영역 확장을 위해 멀티-홉 형태로 구축할 경우 기존의 홉(hop)-기반 라우팅으로는 QoS를 보장하기 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 WiMedia 무선 메쉬 네트워크를 위한 QoS 라우팅 방안을 제안한다. TDMA를 사용하는 WiMedia MAC 특성을 반영하여, 주문형(on-demand) 라우팅과 테이블-구동형(table-driven) 라우팅 각각에 대해 QoS 확장 방안을 제시하였다. 제안한 QoS 라우팅 방식이 홉-기반 라우팅 방식에 비해 성능 면에서 우수함을 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해 확인하였다. 또한, QoS 주문형 라우팅과 QoS 테이블-구동형 라우팅은 전송 전력에 따라 각각 상반된 성능 결과를 보여 주었다.
