DESCRIPTION
TG4e doc.: IEEE e September 2008 W.-C. Jeong Slide 3 Motivation Current superframe structure is not flexible to accommodate dynamic traffic. Channel hopping provides high reliable link-level connections. However, when nodes are densely populated, the available channels may not be sufficient to establish requested channel connections. QoS provision may require more robust control of bandwidth requests instead of competing with data frame in CAP. Flexible but robust out-of-band control frame may provide efficient channel access. Many services including industrial applications, require reliable and fast channel access for communications.TRANSCRIPT

Motivation• Current superframe structure is not flexible to accommodate dynamic
traffic.
• Channel hopping provides high reliable link-level connections. However, when nodes are densely populated, the available channels may not be sufficient to establish requested channel connections.
• QoS provision may require more robust control of bandwidth requests instead of competing with data frame in CAP. Flexible but robust out-of-band control frame may provide efficient channel access.
• Many services including industrial applications, require reliable and fast channel access for communications.

Limitations on current GTS management
• In current superframe structure, – GTS requests
• should compete with data frames in the CAP.-> This would increase collision probability, which reduces
reliability. • acknowledged in the next beacon period
-> Latency is introduced.
– maximum number of GTS is limited to 7.-> inefficient in overloaded network
– QoS provision is difficult-> CAP vs. CFP

Proposed Cyclicframe Structure• Cyclicframe consists of
– Beacon period (BP)• Broadcast beacon frames (TDMA/slotted hopping)• The length of BP and beacon interval value are variable
– Mesh contention access period (MCAP)• Transmit channel request/ACK for peer-to-peer (mesh) connection
using CSMA/CA

Proposed Cyclicframe Structure• Cyclicframe consists of
– Slotted Period(SP)• Transmit/Receive data frames using TDMA/slotted hopping. • Support star connections.
– The number of MCAP/SP repetition in a cyclic frame is specified in BP

Proposed Cyclicframe Structure
• Beacon Period – Beacon frames are transmitted
in a predefined channel-time slot period.
– A Beacon frame contains• cyclicframe structure information
such as beacon interval value, beacon period duration, star topology support flag, etc
• time synchronization information• channel hopping information such
as channel hopping sequence, offset value

Proposed Cyclicframe StructureSeptember 2008
• Mesh Contention Access Period (MCAP)– Channel request/ACK frames are transmitted
using CSMA/CA
– Node B who has packets to send transmit channel request message frame (CRM) to node A
– Based on the CRM and its own schedule, node A sends ACK frame to node B with Tx schedule.
CRM includes:Source Address (SA)Destination Address (DA)Traffic Length Indicator (TLI)Optional information (e.g., transmission data size, transmission period, traffic priority, sensor type, alarm type, etc.)

Proposed Cyclicframe StructureSeptember 2008
• Slotted Period(SP)─ For each node, the number of multiple time-slots
during a single cyclicframe duration will be based on the TLI and optional information (e.g., transmission data size, transmission period, traffic priority, sensor type, alarm type, etc.) submitted by the CRM
─ The node assigned time slots tunes its channel to recipient node’s channel sequence for transmission.

• Slotted Period(SP)─ When the number of node increases, the available
channel offset values are depleted. ─ Star connection is employed to use the finite channel
offset values.

• Slotted Period(SP)─ Star connection─ If star topology support flag is true, the first time slot
is used for channel request.─ A node which has data to send transmits a CRM ─ Based on the CRMs, the star-connection schedule

Summary• Dynamic frame structure:
– Proposed cyclic frame structure supports mesh-star connections for high reliable low power connection.
• CRM/SSA:– Proposed channel request/grant mechanism (CRM/SSA)
reduces channel access latency and collision probability.• TLI:
– Timeslots are reserved based on transmission data size and transmission period information, which allows efficient time-slot management.
– Urgent message can be reliably delivered by exploiting data type.
