Abstract:

The Statistical Priority-based Multiple Access (SPMA) protocol appears in the TTNT (Tactical targeting network technology) data link,which is an access mode based on random competition.In this protocol,time domain and frequency domain resources are used together,and the upper layer traffic is divided into priority.By comparing the threshold and channel occupation,the channel access status is evaluated and the access behavior of each priority traffic is controlled.However,the fixed threshold setting method in the SPMA protocol cannot flexibly deal with the changes of communication services,resulting in the waste of time-frequency resources and the difficulty in guaranteeing the quality of service of heterogeneous services.Therefore,this paper proposes a dynamic threshold setting method based on the frame successful transmission probability.This method uses the frame successful transmission probability to reflect the real-time load of the network.By comparing the current frame successful transmission probability with the frame successful transmission probability of the highest priority service,it dynamically adjusts the threshold of each priority,so that each priority service can access the channel on demand.In order to maintain the stability of network throughput,on the premise of improving channel utilization,it is ensured that the access delay of high priority services is less than 2ms and the transmission success rate is not less than 99%.

Key words: MAC access protocol, statistical priority-based multiple access, dynamic threshold
