8
Link layer Context
  • Data-link layer has responsibility of
    transferring datagram from one node to another
    node over a link
  • Datagram transferred by different link protocols
    over different links, e.g.,
  • Ethernet on first link,
  • frame relay on intermediate links
  • 802.11 on last link
  • transportation analogy
  • trip from New Haven to San Francisco
  • taxi home to union station
  • train union station to JFK
  • plane JFK to San Francisco airport
  • shuttle airport to hotel

9
Link Layer Services
  • Framing, link access
  • encapsulate datagram into frame, adding header,
    trailer
  • implement channel access if shared medium,
  • physical addresses used in frame headers to
    identify source, destination
  • different from IP address!
  • Reliable delivery between two physically
    connected devices
  • seldom used on low bit error link
  • E.g., fiber, twisted pair
  • wireless links high error rates
  • Q why both link-level and end-end reliability?

10
Link Layer Services (more)
  • Flow Control
  • pacing between sender and receivers
  • Error Detection
  • errors caused by signal attenuation, noise.
  • receiver detects presence of errors
  • signals sender for retransmission or drops frame
  • Error Correction
  • receiver identifies and corrects bit error(s)
    without resorting to retransmission

11
Adaptors Communicating
datagram
receiving node
link layer protocol
sending node
adapter
adapter
  • sending side
  • encapsulates datagram in a frame
  • adds error checking bits, rdt, flow control, etc.
  • receiving side
  • looks for errors, rdt, flow control, etc
  • extracts datagram, passes to receiving node
  • link layer implemented in adaptor (aka NIC)
  • Ethernet card, modem, 802.11 card
  • adapter is semi-autonomous, implementing link
    physical layers

12
Link Layer Implementation
  • implemented in adapter
  • e.g., PCMCIA card, Ethernet card
  • typically includes RAM, DSP chips, host bus
    interface, and link interface

13
Error Detection
  • EDC Error Detection and Correction bits
    (redundancy)
  • D Data protected by error checking, may
    include header fields
  • Error detection not 100 reliable! Q why?
  • protocol may miss some errors, but rarely
  • larger EDC field yields better detection and
    correction

14
Parity Checking
Single Bit Parity Detect single bit errors
Parity bit1 iff Number of 1s even
15
Internet checksum
  • Goal detect errors (e.g., flipped bits) in
    transmitted segment (note used at transport
    layer only)
  • Receiver
  • compute checksum of received segment
  • check if computed checksum equals checksum field
    value
  • NO - error detected
  • YES - no error detected.
  • But maybe errors nonetheless?
  • Sender
  • treat segment contents as sequence of 16-bit
    integers
  • checksum addition (1s complement sum) of
    segment contents
  • sender puts checksum value into UDP checksum
    field

16
Checksumming Cyclic Redundancy Check
  • view data bits, D, as a binary number
  • choose r1 bit pattern (generator), G
  • goal choose r CRC bits, R, such that
  • ltD,Rgt exactly divisible by G (modulo 2)
  • receiver knows G, divides ltD,Rgt by G. If
    non-zero remainder error detected!
  • can detect all burst errors less than r1 bits
  • widely used in practice (ATM, HDCL)

17
CRC Example
  • Want
  • D.2r XOR R nG
  • equivalently
  • D.2r nG XOR R
  • equivalently
  • if we divide D.2r by G, want reminder R

D.2r G
R remainder
18
Example G(x)
  • 16 bits CRC
  • CRC-16 x16x15x21, CRC-CCITT x16x12x51
  • both can catch
  • all single or double bit errors
  • all odd number of bit errors
  • all burst errors of length 16 or less
  • gt99.99 of the 17 or 18 bits burst errors

19
Multiple Access Links and Protocols
  • Three types of links
  • point-to-point (single wire, e.g. PPP, SLIP)
  • broadcast (shared wire or medium e.g, Ethernet,
    Wavelan, etc.)
  • switched (e.g., switched Ethernet, ATM etc)

20
Multiple Access protocols
  • single shared communication channel
  • two or more simultaneous transmissions by nodes
    interference
  • only one node can send successfully at a time
  • multiple access protocol
  • distributed algorithm that determines how
    stations share channel, i.e., determine when
    station can transmit
  • communication about channel sharing must use
    channel itself!
  • what to look for in multiple access protocols
  • synchronous or asynchronous
  • information needed about other stations
  • robustness (e.g., to channel errors)
  • performance

21
Multiple Access protocols
  • claim humans use multiple access protocols all
    the time
  • class can "guess" multiple access protocols
  • multiaccess protocol 1
  • multiaccess protocol 2
  • multiaccess protocol 3
  • multiaccess protocol 4

22
MAC Protocols a taxonomy
  • Three broad classes
  • Channel Partitioning
  • divide channel into smaller pieces (time slots,
    frequency)
  • allocate piece to node for exclusive use
  • Random Access
  • allow collisions
  • recover from collisions
  • Taking turns
  • tightly coordinate shared access to avoid
    collisions

Goal efficient, fair, simple, decentralized
23
MAC Protocols Measures
  • Channel Rate R bps
  • Efficient
  • Single user Throughput R
  • Fairness
  • N users
  • Min. user throughput R/N
  • Decentralized
  • Fault tolerance
  • Simple

24
Channel Partitioning MAC protocols TDMA
  • TDMA time division multiple access
  • access to channel in "rounds"
  • each station gets fixed length slot (length pkt
    trans time) in each round
  • unused slots go idle
  • example 6-station LAN, 1,3,4 have pkt, slots
    2,5,6 idle
  • TDM (Time Division Multiplexing) channel divided
    into N time slots, one per user inefficient with
    low duty cycle users and at light load.
  • FDM (Frequency Division Multiplexing) frequency
    subdivided.

25
Channel Partitioning MAC protocols FDMA
  • FDMA frequency division multiple access
  • channel spectrum divided into frequency bands
  • each station assigned fixed frequency band
  • unused transmission time in frequency bands go
    idle
  • example 6-station LAN, 1,3,4 have pkt, frequency
    bands 2,5,6 idle
  • TDM (Time Division Multiplexing) channel divided
    into N time slots, one per user inefficient with
    low duty cycle users and at light load.
  • FDM (Frequency Division Multiplexing) frequency
    subdivided.

26
TDMA FDMA Performance
  • Channel Rate R bps
  • Single user
  • Throughput R/N
  • Fairness
  • Each user gets the same allocation
  • Depends on maximum number of users
  • Decentralized
  • Requires resource division
  • Simple

27
Channel Partitioning (CDMA)
  • CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access)
  • unique code assigned to each user ie, code set
    partitioning
  • used mostly in wireless broadcast channels
    (cellular, satellite, etc)
  • all users share same frequency, but each user has
    own chipping sequence (ie, code) to encode data
  • encoded signal (original data) X (chipping
    sequence)
  • decoding inner-product of encoded signal and
    chipping sequence
  • allows multiple users to coexist and transmit
    simultaneously with minimal interference (if
    codes are almost orthogonal)

28
CDMA - Basics
  • Orthonormal codes
  • ltci,cjgt 0 i?j
  • ltci,cigt 1
  • Encoding at user i
  • Bit 1 send ci
  • Bit 0 send -ci
  • Decoding (at user i)
  • Receive a vector ri
  • Compute tltri,cigt
  • If t1 THEN bit1
  • If t-1 THEN bit0
  • Correctness of decoding
  • Single user
  • Multiple users
  • Assume additive channel.
  • R c1 c2
  • Output ltR,c1gt ltc1,c1gt lt-c2,c1gt 1 0 1

Q is there a benefit with orthogonal codes? In
practice use almost orthogonal

CDMA two-sender interference
31
Random Access protocols
  • When node has packet to send
  • transmit at full channel data rate R.
  • no a priori coordination among nodes
  • two or more transmitting nodes -gt collision,
  • random access MAC protocol specifies
  • how to detect collisions
  • how to recover from collisions (e.g., via delayed
    retransmissions)
  • Examples of random access MAC protocols
  • slotted ALOHA
  • ALOHA
  • CSMA and CSMA/CD

32
Slotted Aloha Norm Abramson
  • time is divided into equal size slots ( pkt
    trans. time)
  • node with new arriving pkt transmit at beginning
    of next slot
  • if collision retransmit pkt in future slots with
    probability p, until successful.

Success (S), Collision (C), Empty (E) slots
33
Slotted Aloha efficiency
  • Q what is max fraction slots successful?
  • A Suppose N stations have packets to send
  • each transmits in slot with probability p
  • prob. successful transmission S is
  • by single node S p (1-p)(N-1)
  • by any of N nodes
  • S Prob (only one transmits)
  • N p (1-p)(N-1)
  • choosing optimum p 1/N
  • as N -gt infinity ...
  • S 1/e .37 as N -gt infinity

34
Goodput vs. Offered Load

G offered load Np
  • when pN lt 1, as p (or N) increases
  • probability of empty slots reduces
  • probability of collision is still low, thus
    goodput increases
  • when pN gt 1, as p (or N) increases,
  • probability of empty slots does not reduce much,
    but
  • probability of collision increases, thus goodput
    decreases
  • goodput is optimal when pN 1

35
Maximum Efficiency vs. n
1/e 0.37
36
Pure (unslotted) ALOHA
  • unslotted Aloha simpler, no synchronization
  • pkt needs transmission
  • send without awaiting for beginning of slot
  • collision probability increases
  • pkt sent at t0 collide with other pkts sent in
    t0-1, t01

37
Pure Aloha (cont.)
  • P(success by given node) P(node transmits) .
  • P(no
    other node transmits in t0-1,t0 .
  • P(no
    other node transmits in t0,t01
  • p .
    (1-p)N-1 . (1-p)N-1
  • P(success by any of N nodes) N p . (1-p)N-1 .
    (1-p)N-1

  • choosing optimum p1/(2N-1)
  • as N -gt infty ... S 1/(2e) .18

  • Single user
  • Throughput R !
  • Fairness
  • Multiple users
  • Combined throughput only 0.37R
  • Decentralized
  • Slotted needs slot synchronization
  • Simple

39
CSMA Carrier Sense Multiple Access
  • CSMA listen before transmit
  • If channel sensed idle transmit entire pkt
  • If channel sensed busy, defer transmission
  • Persistent CSMA retry immediately with
    probability p when channel becomes idle
  • Non-persistent CSMA retry after random interval
  • human analogy dont interrupt others!

40
CSMA collisions
spatial layout of nodes along Ethernet
collisions can occur propagation delay means
two nodes may not yet hear each others
transmission
collision entire packet transmission time wasted
note role of distance and propagation delay in
determining collision prob.

42
CSMA/CD (Collision Detection)
  • CSMA/CD carrier sensing, deferral as in CSMA
  • collisions detected within short time
  • colliding transmissions aborted, reducing channel
    wastage
  • persistent or non-persistent retransmission
  • collision detection
  • easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths,
    compare transmitted, received signals
  • difficult in wireless LANs receiver shut off
    while transmitting
  • human analogy the polite conversationalist

43
CSMA/CD collision detection
44
Efficiency of CSMA/CD
  • Given collision detection, instead of wasting the
    whole packet transmission time (a slot), we waste
    only the time needed to detect collision.
  • Use a contention slot of 2 T, where T is one-way
    propagation delay (why 2 T ?)
  • When the transmission probability p is
    approximately optimal (p 1/N), we try
    approximately e times before each successful
    transmission

P packet size, e.g. 1000 bitsC link capacity,
e.g. 10Mbps
P/C
45
Efficiency of CSMA/CD
  • The efficiency (the percentage of useful time) is
    approximately
  • The value of a plays a fundamental role in the
    efficiency of CSMA/CD protocols.
  • Question you want to increase the capacity of a
    link layer technology (e.g., , 10 Mbps Ethernet
    to 100 Mbps, but still want to maintain the same
    efficiency, what do you do?

46
CDMA/CD
  • Channel Rate R bps
  • Single user
  • Throughput R
  • Fairness
  • Multiple users
  • Depends on Detection Time
  • Decentralized
  • Completely
  • Simple
  • Needs collision detection hardware

47
Taking Turns MAC protocols
  • channel partitioning MAC protocols
  • share channel efficiently at high load
  • inefficient at low load delay in channel access,
    1/N bandwidth allocated even if only 1 active
    node!
  • Random access MAC protocols
  • efficient at low load single node can fully
    utilize channel
  • high load collision overhead
  • taking turns protocols
  • look for best of both worlds!

48
Taking Turns MAC protocols
  • Polling
  • master node invites slave nodes to transmit in
    turn
  • Request to Send, Clear to Send msgs
  • concerns
  • polling overhead
  • latency
  • single point of failure (master)

49
Reservation-based protocols
  • Distributed Polling
  • time divided into slots
  • begins with N short reservation slots
  • reservation slot time equal to channel end-end
    propagation delay
  • station with message to send posts reservation
  • reservation seen by all stations
  • after reservation slots, message transmissions
    ordered by known priority

50

52
LAN Addresses
  • 32-bit IP address
  • network-layer address
  • used to get datagram to destination network
  • LAN (or MAC or physical) address
  • used to get datagram from one interface to
    another physically-connected interface (same
    network)
  • 48 bit MAC address (for most LANs) burned in the
    adapter ROM

53
LAN Addresses
Each adapter on LAN has unique LAN address
54
LAN Address (more)
  • MAC address allocation administered by IEEE
  • manufacturer buys portion of MAC address space
    (to assure uniqueness)
  • Analogy
  • (a) MAC address like ID number ?????
    ????
  • (b) IP address like postal address
    ????? ??????
  • MAC flat address gt portability
  • can move LAN card from one LAN to another
  • IP hierarchical address NOT portable
  • depends on network to which one attaches
  • ARP protocol translates IP address to MAC address

55
Comparison of IP address and MAC Address
  • IP address is hierarchical for routing
    scalability
  • IP address needs to be globally unique (if no
    NAT)
  • IP address depends on IP network to which an
    interface is attached
  • NOT portable
  • MAC address is flat
  • MAC address does not need to be globally unique,
    but the current assignment ensures uniqueness
  • MAC address is assigned to a device
  • portable

56
ARP Address Resolution Protocol
  • Each IP node (Host, Router) on LAN has ARP table
  • ARP Table IP/MAC address mappings for some LAN
    nodes
  • lt IP address MAC address TTLgt
  • TTL (Time To Live) time after which address
    mapping will be forgotten (typically 20 min)
