7 MAC Modes Coordination functions control access to the wireless medium. Two types of services provided are: i) Contention based service - provided by DCF (Distributed Coordination Function)» basis of CSMA/CA, uses random backoff, RTS/CTS ii) Contention free service - provided by PCF (Point Coordination Function)» Used only in infrastructure networks» Point coordinators residing in access points used» Allows stations to transmit frames after a shorter interval to gain priority over contention based services S.Rajesh, (rajeshsweb@gmail.com) 7

12 Why QoS How IEEE Fails to Handle QoS? How IEEE e Handles QoS? EDCF / EDCA HCF / HCCA S.Rajesh, (rajeshsweb@gmail.com) 12

13 Why QoS? Support multimedia traffic Traffic with different requirements Different throughput (bandwidth) requirements Different delay requirements Different delay-jitter requirements Different loss rate acceptance limits Dynamic setup and teardown of streams Immunity to channel impairments Circuit switched behaviour on packet networks S.Rajesh, 13

14 Typical Applications with QoS Requirements Traffic Type Voice Call Signaling Interactive Video Streaming Video Transactional Data Mission-Critical Data Routing Data Network-Management Best-Effort Data Bulk Data Scavenger Traffic Application VoIP Call Setup, Tear-down, dial-tone Video Conferencing Web Cast, Presentation, elearning Client/Server Application, SAP Robot Control IP Routing SNMP Browsing, (HTTP, SMTP) FTP, DB Backup/Sync/Replication Entertainment low band video Priority HIGHEST LEAST S.Rajesh, 14

19 Why QoS How IEEE Fails to Handle QoS? How IEEE e Handles QoS? Major Features EDCF / EDCA HCF / HCCA S.Rajesh, (rajeshsweb@gmail.com) 19

20 How IEEE Fails to Handle QoS? Basic DCF is not QoS friendly Need to contend for every MSDU Contention treats all traffic similar. That is a voice frame contends with the data frame using the same parameters No concept of priority to important traffic even inside the STA. Once the sequence number is allotted, that MSDU must be transmitted before attempting the next MSDU S.Rajesh, (rajeshsweb@gmail.com) 20

21 Contd (How IEEE handles it?) PCF is too complicated and incomplete, if not broken No control over transmission duration after poll Unpredictable Beacon Delays Interruption from station missing beacons S.Rajesh, 21

22 Why QoS How IEEE Fails to Handle QoS? How IEEE e Handles QoS? EDCF / EDCA HCF / HCCA S.Rajesh, (rajeshsweb@gmail.com) 22

23 Major features of e EDCA CAP HCCA HCF IEEE e BLOCK ACK STREAM MANAGEMENT DLP S.Rajesh, 23

24 How IEEE e Handles QoS? Distributed Scheme Prioritize the Channel Access Centralized Scheme Preferentially Polled Channel Access QoS Resource Negotiations Direct Link between Stations Burst Handling Scheme S.Rajesh, 24

25 Major Features Hybrid coordination function Enhanced distributed channel access (EDCA) Distributed mechanism Provides a simple implementation for applications involving voice traffic HCF controlled channel access (HCCA) Centrally controlled mechanism Provides a reasonable guarantee on bandwidth and delay bounds S.Rajesh, (rajeshsweb@gmail.com) 25

26 Contd (Major Features) Direct link protocol Makes the communication efficient by avoiding the middle-man, HC/ QAP Block- acknowledge procedure Improves the efficiency of ACK procedure for large data like video Stream creation and management Provides for dynamic creation, tear down and update of streams S.Rajesh, 26

27 Access Categories 4 Access Categories (ACs) are supported AC_BK: Background traffic AC_BE: Best-Effort traffic AC_VI: Video traffic AC_VO: Voice traffic S.Rajesh, (rajeshsweb@gmail.com) 27

28 Why QoS How IEEE Fails to Handle QoS? How IEEE e Handles QoS? EDCF / EDCA HCF / HCCA S.Rajesh, (rajeshsweb@gmail.com) 28

29 Enhancements in EDCF / EDCA Per Access Category parameters: AIFS CW min CW max TXOP Internal Collision Resolution S.Rajesh, (rajeshsweb@gmail.com) 29

30 EDCF / EDCA S.Rajesh, (rajeshsweb@gmail.com) 30

31 Contd (EDCF / EDCA) S.Rajesh, (rajeshsweb@gmail.com) 31

32 Contd (EDCF / EDCA) AIFS Minimum AIFS used in EDCA is equal to DIFS used in DCF That is the best that can be done without imposing fine grain sub-slot concept into the standard However the contention window for EDCA is decided by the HC/ QAP and it is made significantly smaller than that for DCF In addition to this, the HC/ QAP in practice can limit the number of legacy STA that can get associated in the presence of QSTAs using EDCA S.Rajesh, (rajeshsweb@gmail.com) 32

33 Contd (EDCF / EDCA) CW min CW max Each Access category contends with the same back-off mechanism with different parameters High AC can be configured to choose from smaller Contention Window and vice-versa CW min [AC] Start size of the contention window of that AC CW max [AC] Largest size of the contention window of that AC S.Rajesh, (rajeshsweb@gmail.com) 33

34 Contd (EDCF / EDCA) TXOP The right to access the channel won through contention is not limited to one MPDU+ ACK or frag- burst. The length of time that a QSTA can retain the channel access is EDCA- TXOP- LIMIT (implemented using medium- occupancytimer). The EDCA- TXOP- LIMIT for each AC is decided by HC/ QAP and advertised in its beacons and probe responses When EDCA- TXOP- LIMIT for an AC is zero, then the QSTA is allowed to send one complete MSDU or MMPDU (incl ack) when it wins the channel access for that AC S.Rajesh, (rajeshsweb@gmail.com) 34

35 Contd (EDCF / EDCA) Internal Collision Resolution Since there are four independent channel access functions, one for each AC, it is possible that there will be collisions among them. These are called internal collisions. During internal collisions the following are performed similar to external collisions Short/ long retry counters for MSDU/ MMPDU are incremented A new backoff value is selected within the new CW Contention window (CW) size is not doubled Absence of expected response for a transmitted frame results in loss of EDCA-TXOP and hence new backoff being generated S.Rajesh, (rajeshsweb@gmail.com) 35

39 Stream Setup & Management Three types of traffic under HCCA/HCF Uplink From QSTA to QAP Downlink From QAP to QSTA Side link QSTA to QSTA A Traffic Stream (TS) can avail parameterized QoS based on Traffic Specification (TSPEC) Admission Control at QAP Each QSTA can have uptp 8 up/side link and 8 downlink streams ADDTS To set up stream between QSTA and QAP DELTS To Tear down Stream between QSTA and QAP QAP allow stream setup only if its QoS requirements can be full filed S.Rajesh, (rajeshsweb@gmail.com) 39

40 Direct Link Protocol QAP DLP Request Tear down Request DLP Response Tear down Response QSTA Data Exchange QSTA S.Rajesh, 40

41 QoS Partitioning Traffic streams Reservation request from upper layer Initiation always from WSTA Access Classes As per TOS field in IP header Class mapping as required VLAN partitioning S.Rajesh, 41
