Download pdf

Motivation

  • Per packet Micro-scheduling need firmware/hardware(MAC) upgrade
  • Macro-scheduling could be done in multiple packet basis peridodically, e.g 10ms. *such cooperative scheduling extensions can be supported using a new layer on top of the existing MAC layer.

Features of Scheme

  • each node conducts "global scheduling" based on "load infomation" of all other nodes.

Weakness

  • not a solution for multi-hop
  • no solution for signalling loss, wrong scheduling automatically fades out in next cycle.
