Abstract

Recent technological developments in code division multiple access (CDMA) with multiuser detection (MUD) make multiple packets reception a more appropriate model for the physical layer of future wireless networks. To take advantage of the new features, a shift of responsibility from transmitters to receivers is suggested. This paper proposes a novel receiver initiated multimedia access control (MAC) protocol and a distributed Generic Additive Increase Multiplicative Decrease (GAIMD) fair scheduling scheme to configure efficient transmissions in Ad Hoc networks. The schemes are very simple to implement. Simulation results demonstrate that the throughput can be significantly improved when compared to a transmitter initiated scheme [1] at the price of increased queueing delay of priority voice packets.
