Abstract

In this paper, we propose a new adaptive slot assignment algorithm called In-VDSA in order to guarantee the QoS(Quality of Service) of VBR(Variable Bit Rate) traffics in wireless ATM and maximize efficiency in use of wireless channels. In the proposed algorithm, the status of terminal buffers is encoded in signed number on the GFC(Generic Flow Control) field of an ATM cell header and piggybacked. And also, the number of slots to be assigned to the next frame is adjusted effectively, which is different to methods in the conventional slot assignment algorithms. As a result, we can guarantee QoS such as CLR(Cell Loss Rate) and cell delay and achieve the higher utilization of channels. The validity of the proposed algorithm has been justified in performance by analysis through simulation results using the BONeS tool and comparison with conventional methods.

본 논문에서는 무선 ATM 망에서 VBR(Variable Bit Rate) 트래픽의 QoS(Quality of Service)를 보장하고 무선 채널의 효율성을 극대화 할 수 있는 새로운 적응적 슬롯 할당 알고리즘인 In-VDSA를 제안한다. 제안된 알고리즘에서는 ATM 셀 헤더 부분의 GFC(Generic Flow Field) 필드 상에 단말기의 버퍼 상태를 부호화하여 piggybacking하는 방식을 채택하였으며 다음 프레임에 할당할 슬롯의 개수를 기존의 다른 방식과는 달리 유동적으로 조절하여 할당함으로써 단말기의 셀 손실이나 지연에 대한 QoS를 보장하고 채널 이용 효율을 높일 수 있었다. 제안된 알고리즘은 BONeS tool을 이용한 시뮬레이션을 통하여 기존의 방식과 비교 분석한 결과 그 정당성을 확인하였다.
