MAC – CPS QoS

♦ Three components of 802.16 QoS

» Service flow QoS scheduling » Dynamic service establishment » Two-phase activation model (admit first, then activate)

♦ Service Flow

» A unidirectional MAC-layer transport service characterized by a set of QoS parameters (latency, jitter, throughput) » Identified by a 32-bit SFID (Service Flow ID)

♦ Three types of service flows

» Provisioned: controlled by network management system » Admitted: the required resources reserved by BS, but not active » Active: the required resources committed by the BS

WMAN-WPAN 28

♦ Overview

» Wireless personal area networks (WPANs) are used to convey information

  • ver short distances among a private, intimate group of participant
  • devices. Unlike a wireless local area network (WLAN), a connection

made through a WPAN involves little or no infrastructure or direct connectivity to the world outside the link. This allows small, power- efficient, inexpensive solutions to be implemented for a wide range of devices.

♦ Scope

» This standard defines physical layer (PHY) and medium access control (MAC) specifications for wireless connectivity with fixed, portable, and moving devices within or entering a personal operating space (POS). A POS is the space about a person or object that typically extends up to 10 m in all directions and envelops the person whether stationary or in motion. This standard is based upon technology originally developed by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG).

Introduction

♦ Low Rate WPAN (LR-WPAN )

» simple, low-cost communication network » wireless connectivity » applications with limited power and low throughput requirements

♦ Characteristics of an LR-WPAN

» Over-the-air data rates of 250 kb/s, 100kb/s, 40 kb/s, 20 kb/s » 64-bit addresses or allocated 16-bit short addresses » Carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance (CSMA-CA) » Low power consumption » Energy Detection (ED); Link quality indication (LQI) » Radio channels

– 16 channels in the 2450 MHz band – 30 channels in the 915 MHz band – 3 channels in the 868 MHz band

Types of Devices

♦ Two types

» FFD - full-function device

– Can operate in 3 modes: PAN coordinator, coordinator, device – FFD can talk to RFDs or other FFDs

» RFD - reduced-function device

– intended for applications that are extremely simple (light switch , passive infrared sensor) – RFD can talk only to an FFD

♦ WPAN shall include at least one FFD

  • perating as the PAN coordinator

Topologies, Identifiers

♦ Topologies

» star topology  communication between devices and PAN coordinator » peer-to-peer topology  devices may communicate directly; needs PAN coordinator

enables mesh networking - 802.15.5, IP (6lowPAN), Zigbee

♦ Identifiers

» Each devices has a unique 64-bit address; short 16-bit addresses may be used » Each PAN has an identifier

Architecture

♦ Physical layer (PHY)

» activation and deactivation of the radio transceiver » ED, LQI, channel selection, clear channel assessment » transmitting and receiving data » The radio operates at the following unlicensed bands

– 868–868.6 MHz (Europe) – 2400–2483.5 MHz (worldwide)

♦ MAC sublayer

» beacon management » channel access » frame validation, frame acknowledged » association and disassociation » hooks for implementing application-appropriate security mechanisms

WMAN-WPAN 37

Superframe Structure

♦ Superframe format

» defined by the PAN coordinator » bounded by beacons » can have an active and an inactive portions

♦ Beacons used to

» synchronize attached devices » identify the PAN » describe superframe structure

♦ Superframe may have 2 periods

» Contention access period

– Devices use slotted CSMA-CA mechanism

» Contention-free period (CFP)

– Guaranteed timeslots (GTS) for devices

♦ If coordinator desires no superframe it turns off beacon transmissions

» Unslotted CSMA-CA is used
