Abstract :
A novel multiple access protocol suitable for packet voice transmission over TDMA-based wireless networks is introduced. The protocol, called the polling assisted by reservations (PAR), is a combination of cyclic polling with random access. Simulation results are provided demonstrating that the PAR protocol offers a significant performance improvement over cyclic polling schemes
