Project P3-A MAC Scheduling and Reservations with UDP

1
Project P3-AMAC Scheduling and Reservations with
UDP

• Design and Prototyping project
• Test harness for adding limited application level
  MAC features to 802.11 provided (with RTS/CTS and
  ACKs turned off)
• If available, utilize Linux PC AP and client
  platforms with modified drivers,
• Design document (full description, flow charts,
  pseudo-code, etc.) and prototype demo as
  deliverable.

MAC Project with UDP

• Design MAC reservation and scheduling extensions
  to provide flow QoS for 1,2..n users. Test with
  3 UDP sources generating 0.5, 1, 2 Mbps.
  Measure connection setup delay, flow rate,
  overhead, net throughput and packet loss rates.
