The improved CFDAMA protocol with predictive request strategy via satellite

【Abstract】 The novel satellite Multiple Access scheme called Combined Free/Demand Assignment Multiple Access-Predictive Request (CFDAMA-PR) is proposed in this paper. In the CFDAMA-PR scheme, the ground station requests the demand assignment slots by predicting the positive varying trend of the traffic source. The delay performances between CFDAMA-PR and CFDAMA-RR (Round Robin request) schemes were compared by computer simulation. Simulations were carried out with the Interrupted Poisson Process (IPP) and the Interrupted Fluid Process (IFP) traffic models. Simulation results demonstrate that compared to CFDAMA-RR protocol, the CFDAMA-PR scheme achieves a better delay/throughput of satellite channel.更多还原
