ABSTRACT:
The admissibility of periodic traffic to a wireless medium can be estimated using a measurement report format that includes a field indicating the number of bins for a predetermined channel of the wireless medium that were busy during a measurement period, and a field indicating the number of bins for the predetermined channel of the wireless medium that were idle during the measurement period. Additionally, the measurement report format includes a field indicating the granularity in multiples of slot times of the wireless medium and a plurality of Bin Density fields, such that one Bin Density field indicates a density of medium time that the wireless medium is busy, and at least one other Bin Density field indicates a distribution of idle time after the wireless medium was busy for time 0 slots.
