Preliminary Discussion on Globally Prioritized Medium Access for Multi-Channel Wireless Systems

Ref: HURRAY-TR-070415       Publication Date: 3, Jul, 2007

Abstract:
We discuss the development of a simple globally prioritized multi-channel medium access control (MAC) protocol for wireless networks. This protocol provides “hard” pre-run-time real-time guarantees to sporadic message streams, exploits a very large fraction of the capacity of all channels for “hard” real-time traffic and also makes it possible to fully utilize the channels with non real-time traffic when hard real-time messages do not request to be transmitted. The potential of such protocol for real-time applications is discussed and a schedulability analysis is also presented.
