An Analytical Model for CBAP Allocations in IEEE 802.11ad
An Analytical Model for CBAP Allocations in IEEE 802.11ad
The IEEE 802.11ad standard extends WiFi operation to the millimeter wave frequencies, and introduces novel features concerning both the physical (PHY) and Medium Access Control (MAC) layers. The hybrid MAC layer provides for two different kinds of resource allocations: Contention Based Access Periods (CBAPs) and contention-free Service Periods (SPs). In …
