Simulation of Computer Communication Networks

Introduction

The simulation have been developed to evaluate performance of various MAC (Medium Access Control) layer protocols. A new protocol viz. Random Multiple Access Protocol has been developed and analysed. This protocol has further been modified as Hierarchical protocols combinations of (i) RMA and Polling, and (ii) RMA and ALOHA. The simulation developments are also underway to study Wireless Asynchronous Transfer Mode (WATM) networks. The new access mechanisms have been devised for transport of multimedia services on WATM networks.

Special Features: for RMA: Very high throughputs, for WATMs: Considerably low delays

Prospective Users: Networking Companies and Organisations

Keywords: Medium Access Control Protocols, Random Multiple Access (RMA), Wireless ATM

Type of Technology: Simulation Software

Glossary: RMA: A MAC protocol using time - frequency codes. These codes are distributed to users for accessing the network; WATM: Here mobile users access fixed network using modified cells
