ABSTRACT:
A system, device, and method for contention-based reservation in a shared medium network resolves collisions resulting from contention access using a combination of probabilistic tree splitting and first-come-first-served splitting techniques. The collision resolution procedure utilizes the first-come-first-served splitting technique to select a collision resolution interval, and provides two contention mini-slots to improve the likelihood of successful reservations. Each contending user transmits a reservation request in a randomly selected contention mini-slot. Two contention mini-slots are provided for a predetermined maximum number of collision resolution iterations, after which only one contention mini-slot is provided.
