Strictly Time Slot Assignment: Positive Avoid Random back-off: Hidden/Exposed terminal: Positive Well designed time slot assignment to avoid hidden/exposed terminal problem. Lossy wireless link: Packet loss due to lossy wireless link: still need enhancement <Rui Zhang>, <CUNY>

Current GTS structure Issues for current GTS solution <month year> doc.: IEEE 802.15-08-0597-0100004e doc.: IEEE 802.15-< 15-08-0597-01-004e > <Sep 2008> Current GTS structure Issues for current GTS solution In lossy wireless links, retransmission is inevitable If the retransmission can not be accomplished in its assigned GTS slot. Long retransmission delay for non-delay sensitive traffic Packet dropped for delay sensitive case. <Rui Zhang>, <CUNY>

Proposed Ideas Proposed idea: Embedded CAP <month year> doc.: IEEE 802.15-08-0597-0100004e doc.: IEEE 802.15-< 15-08-0597-01-004e > <Sep 2008> Proposed Ideas In 15.4b, a CFP slot for one node’s transmission Proposed idea: Embedded CAP To allow remaining time in GTS for other nodes to (re)transmit frames via CSMA/CA <Rui Zhang>, <CUNY>

An Example Timeline Still 600 symbols = 9.6 ms is left doc.: IEEE 802.15-< 15-08-0597-01-004e > <Sep 2008> An Example Timeline Successful Longest frame transmission = 360 symbols Still 600 symbols = 9.6 ms is left Longest Frame + tACK + ACK + LIFS = 360 symbols 802.15.4 PHY rate: 250kb/s = 62.5k symbols/s (QPSK) 266 32 22 40 One symbol = 16 us <Rui Zhang>, <CUNY>

Operation of Embedded CAP doc.: IEEE 802.15-< 15-08-0597-01-004e > <Sep 2008> Operation of Embedded CAP No change for each node’s GTS slot. During other GTSs Nodes wait for ACK CSMA/CA to compete the channel for (re)transmission Some special cases Multiple packets: ACK should notify the existence of subsequent frames until the final ACK No packet: the assigned GTS device send a short probe frame and the ACK(broadcast type) will be sent back by PC to release the channel for other nodes <Rui Zhang>, <CUNY>

Multiple packets case: burst data solution <Sep 2008> Multiple packets case: burst data solution <Rui Zhang>, <CUNY>

No packet case: free the channel for others to compete <Sep 2008> No packet case: free the channel for others to compete <Rui Zhang>, <CUNY>

An Example for Latency Improvement doc.: IEEE 802.15-< 15-08-0597-01-004e > <Sep 2008> An Example for Latency Improvement Star topology Node 1-7 have periodical data to report to PC(PAN Coordinator) Node 1-7 have been assigned GTS slots respectively. PC 1 2 4 3 7 6 5 8 9 10 11 12 <Rui Zhang>, <CUNY>

doc.: IEEE 802.15-< 15-08-0597-01-004e > <Sep 2008> For15.4b case: the node 1 needs to wait a whole beacon interval to retransmit. Latency = 491ms <Rui Zhang>, <CUNY>

doc.: IEEE 802.15-< 15-08-0597-01-004e > <Sep 2008> Proposed Embedded CAP: the node 1 can access node 2’s CFP using CSMA/CA .Latency = 15.36ms <Rui Zhang>, <CUNY>

Summary for Embedded CAP doc.: IEEE 802.15-< 15-08-0597-01-004e > <Sep 2008> Summary for Embedded CAP Enlarged Effective GTS slots A node can use others’ GTS slots to retransmit its GTS frame Potential latency reduction of GTS frame Enlarged Effective CAP Period Residual time for each GTS slot is available for other nodes via CSMA/CA Enhanced packet delivery More “reliable and guaranteed” than current solution Little modification <Rui Zhang>, <CUNY>
