It can well schedule the packet transmission according to the exact number of active Mobile Terminals (MTs) determined by selforganizing algorithm and adjust the number of packets sent by one node in one frame properly.UASMA protocol employs a special frame structure, which makes it possible to allocate channel resource to uplink and downlink traffic according to their respective service requirements. The proposed concept of referenced-frame-length can ensure the frame length varies in a certain range,and consequently increase the utilization efficiency of the channel greatly. Meanwhile, UASMA protocol uses an efficient collision resolution algorithm to guarantee that active MTs can access the channel rapidly. Finally, the performance of UASMA protocol is evaluated by simulation and it is also compared with carrier sense multiple access, rounding-poll and UPMA protocols. The results show that the UASMA has better performance than others.展开更多
