Abstract
We combine autonomous algorithms for dynamic channel assignment (DCA) and power control in a TDMA/FDMA wireless system as a medium access control (MAC) protocol. The DCA algorithm determines paired radio channels that experience the least interference and are least likely to cause interference. The power control algorithm uses local estimations of signal to interference ratio (SIR) at a receiver to iteratively command power adjustment on the desired transmitter. A common control frequency, which is frame-synchronized among base stations, provides all necessary information for DCA without blind slots. Computer simulations are used to evaluate system performance. Results from computer simulations demonstrate good spectrum efficiency and robustness. Although studied under a specific set of parameters, this type of MAC protocol can be applied in different wireless communications environments.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
