CONNECTION-BASED PLANNING PROCEDURE WITH DIFFERENTIATED SERVICE SUPPORT FOR MULTISALTO WIRELESS NETWORKS.

摘要

Procedure for controlling access to a common radio channel by nodes (BS, RN (1,1) ... RN (n, Nn), RNi), in a wireless multi-skip communication network for multi-skip traffic from a source node to a destination node, in which the network comprises a plurality of relay nodes (RN (1,1) ... RN (n, Nn), RNi) and a centralized node (BS) that manages access control, and in which a relay node (RN (1,1) ... RN (n, Nn), RNi) that has to access the channel is arranged to issue a cumulative request to the centralized node summarizing the request for the necessary resources at each link of a multi-skip path to the destination node, characterized in that, in the presence of traffic belonging to different classes of service, said cumulative request issued by said relay node (RN (1,1) ... RN (n, Nn), RNi) comprises the concatenation of a plurality of individual cumulative requests each concerning traffic belonging to au A different kind of service.
