摘要:
A method and apparatus are described including determining a target congestion index, determining a congestion index based on information from a last back-off round, comparing the target congestion index with the congestion index, performing one of increasing a triggering set size by a first factor and decreasing the triggering set size by a second factor responsive to the comparison, determining if a communications medium is idle, adjusting a back-off counter responsive to the third determining act, determining if the back-off counter is equal to a triggering point in the triggering set and transmitting data responsive to the fourth determining act.
摘要:
A method and apparatus are described including transmitting data if a slot count is equal to a triggering event, selecting a new triggering event responsive to a failed data transmission and replacing the triggering event with the new triggering event.

A method and apparatus are described including determining if a successful unicast transmission has occurred, adjusting a contention window to a minimum value and adjusting a time slot back-off counter to one-half of the value of the contention window plus one responsive to the determination and adjusting the contention window using one of a plurality of adjustment schemes and selecting said time slot back-off counter from an interval between zero and the contention window.
摘要:
A method and apparatus are described for gaining access to a communication medium in a contention-based network, including determining a slot count based on a number of stations in the contention-based network, adjusting the slot count, initiating a frame transmission when the slot count reaches a predetermined value and wherein said number of stations and an address queue are adjusted to reflect one of a priority and traffic patterns. Further, a method and apparatus are described for gaining access to a communication medium in a contention-based network, including receiving a slot count based on a number of stations in the contention-based network, adjusting the slot count, initiating a frame transmission when the slot count reaches a predetermined value and wherein said number of stations and an address queue are adjusted to reflect a priority.

A method and system are described including retrieving a sparseness indication, retrieving an indication of a number of failed transmissions, comparing the sparseness indication to an optimal sparseness, comparing the number of failed transmissions to a first threshold, adjusting a size of a set of triggering events responsive to both the first and the second comparison, comparing a data buffer push rate to a data buffer arrival rate, further adjusting the size of the triggering set responsive to the third comparison, determining system fairness, comparing the size of the triggering set to a second threshold and further adjusting the size of the triggering set responsive to one of the determination and a combination of the determination and the fourth comparison.
