ABSTRACT:
In a communication system serving a plurality of transmitter-receivers, high capacity is achieved by asynchronous contention access of relatively short reservation request packets, which if successfully transmitted result in the scheduled, noncontention transmission of relatively long message data packets. In a first embodiment, the reservation request packets bear information relating to the duration of the message data packets, so that appropriate message data transmission time may be scheduled. Unsuccessful or colliding reservation request packets are retransmitted. In a second embodiment, the reservation requests packets do not include duration information, and the message data packets have fixed duration. In the second embodiment, collision resolution techniques allow the message data scheduling without retransmission of some colliding reservation request packets. It is also possible to operate in both modes, by scheduling random length message data transmissions as a result of noncolliding reservation request packets, and by scheduling fixed duration message data transmissions when reservation request packets collide.
