Abstract
In this paper, an adaptive transmission scheme is proposed to improve the spectral efficiency of TDMA systems. Services accommodated in such systems are classified as QoS services and BE services. Unlike conventional adaptive TDMA systems where the time slot duration is fixed for each user, our proposed system employs transmission slots with adaptive duration. For QoS services, rate adaptive modulation is adopted to make use of the instantaneous channel conditions of individual user. For BE services, a media access control strategy (MAC) that takes the instantaneous transmission conditions of all physical links of all BE services into consideration is employed. A tramework to study the proposed system in terms of the average packet loss and the average system throughput is presented. The maximum nuumber of QoS services that can be supported in the system while a predefined requirement on the average packet loss is still satisfied is investigated. A comparison study shows that our proposed scheme has higher system throughput over both conventional fixed and adaptive TDMA systems.
