Link Layer IntroductionTerminology hosts and routers are

nodes communication channels

that connect adjacent nodes along communication path are links wired links wireless links LANs

layer-2 packet is a frame encapsulates datagram

data-link layer has responsibility of transferring datagram from one node to physically adjacent node over a link

Data Link Layer 5-4

Link layer context

datagram transferred by different link protocols over different links eg Ethernet on first link frame relay on intermediate links 80211 on last link

each link protocol provides different services eg may or may not provide rdt over link

transportation analogy trip from Princeton to

Lausanne limo Princeton to JFK plane JFK to Geneva train Geneva to Lausanne

tourist = datagram transport segment = communication link

transportation mode = link layer protocol

travel agent = routing algorithm

Data Link Layer 5-5

Link Layer Services framing link access

encapsulate datagram into frame adding header trailer

channel access if shared medium ldquoMACrdquo addresses used in frame headers to identify source dest bull different from IP address

reliable delivery between adjacent nodes we learned how to do this already (chapter 3) seldom used on low bit-error link (fiber some twisted pair)

wireless links high error ratesbull Q why both link-level and end-end reliability

Data Link Layer 5-6

Link Layer Services (more) flow control

pacing between adjacent sending and receiving nodes

error detection errors caused by signal attenuation noise receiver detects presence of errors

bull signals sender for retransmission or drops frame

error correction receiver identifies and corrects bit error(s) without resorting to retransmission

half-duplex and full-duplex with half duplex nodes at both ends of link can transmit but not at same time

Data Link Layer 5-7

Data Link Layer 5-10

Error DetectionEDC= Error Detection and Correction bits (redundancy)D = Data protected by error checking may include header fields

bull Error detection not 100 reliablebull protocol may miss some errors but rarelybull larger EDC field yields better detection and correction otherwise

Data Link Layer 5-11

Parity Checking

Single Bit ParityDetect single bit errors

Two Dimensional Bit ParityDetect and correct single bit errors

Data Link Layer 5-12

Internet checksum (review)

Sender treat segment

contents as sequence of 16-bit integers

checksum addition (1rsquos complement sum) of segment contents

sender puts checksum value into UDP checksum field

Receiver compute checksum of

received segment check if computed

checksum equals checksum field value NO - error detected YES - no error detected But maybe errors nonetheless

Goal detect ldquoerrorsrdquo (eg flipped bits) in transmitted packet (note used at transport layer only)

Data Link Layer 5-13

Checksumming Cyclic Redundancy Check view data bits D as a binary number choose r+1 bit pattern (generator) G goal choose r CRC bits R such that

ltDRgt exactly divisible by G (modulo 2) receiver knows G divides ltDRgt by G If non-

zero remainder error detected can detect all burst errors less than r+1 bits

widely used in practice (Ethernet 80211 WiFi ATM)

Data Link Layer 5-14

CRC ExampleWant

D2r XOR R = nGequivalently

D2r = nG XOR R equivalently if we divide D2r by G want remainder R

R = remainder[ ]

Multiple Access Links and ProtocolsTwo types of ldquolinksrdquo point-to-point

PPP for dial-up access point-to-point link between Ethernet switch and host

broadcast (shared wire or medium) old-fashioned Ethernet upstream HFC 80211 wireless LAN

shared wire (eg cabled Ethernet)

shared RF (eg 80211 WiFi)

shared RF(satellite)

humans at acocktail party

(shared air acoustical)

Data Link Layer 5-17

Multiple Access protocols single shared broadcast channel two or more simultaneous transmissions by nodes interference collision if node receives two or more signals at the same time

multiple access protocol distributed algorithm that determines how nodes share channel ie determine when node can transmit

communication about channel sharing must use channel itself no out-of-band channel for coordination

Data Link Layer 5-18

Ideal Multiple Access ProtocolBroadcast channel of rate R bps1 when one node wants to transmit it can send at rate R

2 when M nodes want to transmit each can send at average rate RM

3 fully decentralized no special node to coordinate transmissions no synchronization of clocks slots

4 simple

Data Link Layer 5-19

MAC Protocols a taxonomy

Three broad classes Channel Partitioning

divide channel into smaller ldquopiecesrdquo (time slots frequency code space)

allocate piece to node for exclusive use Random Access

channel not divided allow collisions ldquorecoverrdquo from collisions

ldquoTaking turnsrdquo nodes take turns but nodes with more to send can take longer turns

Data Link Layer 5-20

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols TDMA

TDMA time division multiple access access to channel in rounds each station gets fixed length slot (length = pkt trans time) in each round

unused slots go idle example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt slots 256 idle

1 3 4 1 3 4

6-slotframe

Data Link Layer 5-21

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols FDMAFDMA frequency division multiple access

channel spectrum divided into frequency bands

each station assigned fixed frequency band unused transmission time in frequency bands go idle

example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt frequency bands 256 idle

frequency bands time

FDM cable

Wireless Mobile Networks 6-22

Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

used in several wireless broadcast channels (cellular satellite etc) standards

unique ldquocoderdquo assigned to each user ie code set partitioning

all users share same frequency but each user has own ldquochippingrdquo sequence (ie code) to encode data

encoded signal = (original data) X (chipping sequence)

decoding inner-product of encoded signal and chipping sequence

allows multiple users to ldquocoexistrdquo and transmit simultaneously with minimal interference (if codes are ldquoorthogonalrdquo)

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Data Link Layer 5-48

Ethernetrsquos CSMACD (more)

Jam Signal make sure all other transmitters are aware of collision 48 bits

Bit time 1 microsec for 10 Mbps Ethernet for K=1023 wait time is about 50 msec

Exponential Backoff Goal adapt

retransmission attempts to estimated current load heavy load random wait will be longer

first collision choose K from 01 delay is K 512 bit transmission times

after second collision choose K from 0123hellip

after ten collisions choose K from 01234hellip1023

Tprop = max prop delay between 2 nodes in LAN

ttrans = time to transmit max-size frame

efficiency goes to 1 as tprop goes to 0

Data Link Layer 5-3

Link Layer IntroductionTerminology hosts and routers are

nodes communication channels

that connect adjacent nodes along communication path are links wired links wireless links LANs

layer-2 packet is a frame encapsulates datagram

data-link layer has responsibility of transferring datagram from one node to physically adjacent node over a link

Data Link Layer 5-4

Link layer context

datagram transferred by different link protocols over different links eg Ethernet on first link frame relay on intermediate links 80211 on last link

each link protocol provides different services eg may or may not provide rdt over link

transportation analogy trip from Princeton to

Lausanne limo Princeton to JFK plane JFK to Geneva train Geneva to Lausanne

tourist = datagram transport segment = communication link

transportation mode = link layer protocol

travel agent = routing algorithm

Data Link Layer 5-5

Link Layer Services framing link access

encapsulate datagram into frame adding header trailer

channel access if shared medium ldquoMACrdquo addresses used in frame headers to identify source dest bull different from IP address

reliable delivery between adjacent nodes we learned how to do this already (chapter 3) seldom used on low bit-error link (fiber some twisted pair)

wireless links high error ratesbull Q why both link-level and end-end reliability

Data Link Layer 5-6

Link Layer Services (more) flow control

pacing between adjacent sending and receiving nodes

error detection errors caused by signal attenuation noise receiver detects presence of errors

bull signals sender for retransmission or drops frame

error correction receiver identifies and corrects bit error(s) without resorting to retransmission

half-duplex and full-duplex with half duplex nodes at both ends of link can transmit but not at same time

Data Link Layer 5-7

Error DetectionEDC= Error Detection and Correction bits (redundancy)D = Data protected by error checking may include header fields

bull Error detection not 100 reliablebull protocol may miss some errors but rarelybull larger EDC field yields better detection and correction otherwise

Parity Checking

Single Bit ParityDetect single bit errors

Two Dimensional Bit ParityDetect and correct single bit errors

Data Link Layer 5-12

Internet checksum (review)

Sender treat segment

contents as sequence of 16-bit integers

checksum addition (1rsquos complement sum) of segment contents

sender puts checksum value into UDP checksum field

Receiver compute checksum of

received segment check if computed

checksum equals checksum field value NO - error detected YES - no error detected But maybe errors nonetheless

Goal detect ldquoerrorsrdquo (eg flipped bits) in transmitted packet (note used at transport layer only)

Data Link Layer 5-13

Checksumming Cyclic Redundancy Check view data bits D as a binary number choose r+1 bit pattern (generator) G goal choose r CRC bits R such that

ltDRgt exactly divisible by G (modulo 2) receiver knows G divides ltDRgt by G If non-

zero remainder error detected can detect all burst errors less than r+1 bits

widely used in practice (Ethernet 80211 WiFi ATM)

Data Link Layer 5-14

CRC ExampleWant

D2r XOR R = nGequivalently

D2r = nG XOR R equivalently if we divide D2r by G want remainder R

R = remainder[ ]

Multiple Access Links and ProtocolsTwo types of ldquolinksrdquo point-to-point

PPP for dial-up access point-to-point link between Ethernet switch and host

broadcast (shared wire or medium) old-fashioned Ethernet upstream HFC 80211 wireless LAN

shared wire (eg cabled Ethernet)

shared RF (eg 80211 WiFi)

shared RF(satellite)

humans at acocktail party

(shared air acoustical)

Data Link Layer 5-17

Multiple Access protocols single shared broadcast channel two or more simultaneous transmissions by nodes interference collision if node receives two or more signals at the same time

multiple access protocol distributed algorithm that determines how nodes share channel ie determine when node can transmit

communication about channel sharing must use channel itself no out-of-band channel for coordination

Data Link Layer 5-18

Ideal Multiple Access ProtocolBroadcast channel of rate R bps1 when one node wants to transmit it can send at rate R

2 when M nodes want to transmit each can send at average rate RM

3 fully decentralized no special node to coordinate transmissions no synchronization of clocks slots

4 simple

Data Link Layer 5-19

MAC Protocols a taxonomy

Three broad classes Channel Partitioning

divide channel into smaller ldquopiecesrdquo (time slots frequency code space)

allocate piece to node for exclusive use Random Access

channel not divided allow collisions ldquorecoverrdquo from collisions

ldquoTaking turnsrdquo nodes take turns but nodes with more to send can take longer turns

Data Link Layer 5-20

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols TDMA

TDMA time division multiple access access to channel in rounds each station gets fixed length slot (length = pkt trans time) in each round

unused slots go idle example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt slots 256 idle

1 3 4 1 3 4

6-slotframe

Data Link Layer 5-21

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols FDMAFDMA frequency division multiple access

channel spectrum divided into frequency bands

each station assigned fixed frequency band unused transmission time in frequency bands go idle

example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt frequency bands 256 idle

frequency bands time

FDM cable

Wireless Mobile Networks 6-22

Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

used in several wireless broadcast channels (cellular satellite etc) standards

unique ldquocoderdquo assigned to each user ie code set partitioning

all users share same frequency but each user has own ldquochippingrdquo sequence (ie code) to encode data

encoded signal = (original data) X (chipping sequence)

decoding inner-product of encoded signal and chipping sequence

allows multiple users to ldquocoexistrdquo and transmit simultaneously with minimal interference (if codes are ldquoorthogonalrdquo)

Adaptive antennas

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

human analogy the polite conversationalist

ldquoTaking Turnsrdquo MAC protocolschannel partitioning MAC protocols

Data Link Layer 5-47

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Data Link Layer 5-48

Ethernetrsquos CSMACD (more)

Jam Signal make sure all other transmitters are aware of collision 48 bits

Bit time 1 microsec for 10 Mbps Ethernet for K=1023 wait time is about 50 msec

Exponential Backoff Goal adapt

retransmission attempts to estimated current load heavy load random wait will be longer

first collision choose K from 01 delay is K 512 bit transmission times

PPP Design Requirements [RFC 1557]

packet framing encapsulation of network-layer datagram in data link frame carry network layer data of any network layer protocol (not just IP) at same time

Page 3: Data Link Layer5-1 Chapter 5: The Data Link Layer Our goals:  understand principles behind data link layer services:  error detection, correction  sharing

Data Link Layer 5-3

Link Layer IntroductionTerminology hosts and routers are

nodes communication channels

that connect adjacent nodes along communication path are links wired links wireless links LANs

layer-2 packet is a frame encapsulates datagram

data-link layer has responsibility of transferring datagram from one node to physically adjacent node over a link

Data Link Layer 5-4

Link layer context

datagram transferred by different link protocols over different links eg Ethernet on first link frame relay on intermediate links 80211 on last link

each link protocol provides different services eg may or may not provide rdt over link

transportation analogy trip from Princeton to

Lausanne limo Princeton to JFK plane JFK to Geneva train Geneva to Lausanne

tourist = datagram transport segment = communication link

transportation mode = link layer protocol

travel agent = routing algorithm

Data Link Layer 5-5

Link Layer Services framing link access

encapsulate datagram into frame adding header trailer

channel access if shared medium ldquoMACrdquo addresses used in frame headers to identify source dest bull different from IP address

reliable delivery between adjacent nodes we learned how to do this already (chapter 3) seldom used on low bit-error link (fiber some twisted pair)

wireless links high error ratesbull Q why both link-level and end-end reliability

Data Link Layer 5-6

Link Layer Services (more) flow control

pacing between adjacent sending and receiving nodes

error detection errors caused by signal attenuation noise receiver detects presence of errors

bull signals sender for retransmission or drops frame

error correction receiver identifies and corrects bit error(s) without resorting to retransmission

half-duplex and full-duplex with half duplex nodes at both ends of link can transmit but not at same time

Data Link Layer 5-7

Error DetectionEDC= Error Detection and Correction bits (redundancy)D = Data protected by error checking may include header fields

bull Error detection not 100 reliablebull protocol may miss some errors but rarelybull larger EDC field yields better detection and correction otherwise

Parity Checking

Single Bit ParityDetect single bit errors

Two Dimensional Bit ParityDetect and correct single bit errors

0 0

Data Link Layer 5-12

Internet checksum (review)

Sender treat segment

contents as sequence of 16-bit integers

checksum addition (1rsquos complement sum) of segment contents

sender puts checksum value into UDP checksum field

Receiver compute checksum of

received segment check if computed

checksum equals checksum field value NO - error detected YES - no error detected But maybe errors nonetheless

Goal detect ldquoerrorsrdquo (eg flipped bits) in transmitted packet (note used at transport layer only)

Data Link Layer 5-13

Checksumming Cyclic Redundancy Check view data bits D as a binary number choose r+1 bit pattern (generator) G goal choose r CRC bits R such that

ltDRgt exactly divisible by G (modulo 2) receiver knows G divides ltDRgt by G If non-

zero remainder error detected can detect all burst errors less than r+1 bits

widely used in practice (Ethernet 80211 WiFi ATM)

Data Link Layer 5-14

CRC ExampleWant

D2r XOR R = nGequivalently

D2r = nG XOR R equivalently if we divide D2r by G want remainder R

R = remainder[ ]

Multiple Access Links and ProtocolsTwo types of ldquolinksrdquo point-to-point

PPP for dial-up access point-to-point link between Ethernet switch and host

broadcast (shared wire or medium) old-fashioned Ethernet upstream HFC 80211 wireless LAN

shared wire (eg cabled Ethernet)

shared RF (eg 80211 WiFi)

shared RF(satellite)

humans at acocktail party

(shared air acoustical)

Data Link Layer 5-17

Multiple Access protocols single shared broadcast channel two or more simultaneous transmissions by nodes interference collision if node receives two or more signals at the same time

multiple access protocol distributed algorithm that determines how nodes share channel ie determine when node can transmit

communication about channel sharing must use channel itself no out-of-band channel for coordination

Data Link Layer 5-18

Ideal Multiple Access ProtocolBroadcast channel of rate R bps1 when one node wants to transmit it can send at rate R

2 when M nodes want to transmit each can send at average rate RM

3 fully decentralized no special node to coordinate transmissions no synchronization of clocks slots

4 simple

Data Link Layer 5-19

MAC Protocols a taxonomy

Three broad classes Channel Partitioning

divide channel into smaller ldquopiecesrdquo (time slots frequency code space)

allocate piece to node for exclusive use Random Access

channel not divided allow collisions ldquorecoverrdquo from collisions

ldquoTaking turnsrdquo nodes take turns but nodes with more to send can take longer turns

Data Link Layer 5-20

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols TDMA

TDMA time division multiple access access to channel in rounds each station gets fixed length slot (length = pkt trans time) in each round

unused slots go idle example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt slots 256 idle

1 3 4 1 3 4

6-slotframe

Data Link Layer 5-21

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols FDMAFDMA frequency division multiple access

channel spectrum divided into frequency bands

each station assigned fixed frequency band unused transmission time in frequency bands go idle

example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt frequency bands 256 idle

frequency bands time

FDM cable

Wireless Mobile Networks 6-22

Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

used in several wireless broadcast channels (cellular satellite etc) standards

unique ldquocoderdquo assigned to each user ie code set partitioning

all users share same frequency but each user has own ldquochippingrdquo sequence (ie code) to encode data

encoded signal = (original data) X (chipping sequence)

decoding inner-product of encoded signal and chipping sequence

allows multiple users to ldquocoexistrdquo and transmit simultaneously with minimal interference (if codes are ldquoorthogonalrdquo)

Adaptive antennas

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

Data Link Layer 5-47

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Bit time 1 microsec for 10 Mbps Ethernet for K=1023 wait time is about 50 msec

Exponential Backoff Goal adapt

Page 4: Data Link Layer5-1 Chapter 5: The Data Link Layer Our goals:  understand principles behind data link layer services:  error detection, correction  sharing

Data Link Layer 5-4

Link layer context

datagram transferred by different link protocols over different links eg Ethernet on first link frame relay on intermediate links 80211 on last link

each link protocol provides different services eg may or may not provide rdt over link

transportation analogy trip from Princeton to

Lausanne limo Princeton to JFK plane JFK to Geneva train Geneva to Lausanne

tourist = datagram transport segment = communication link

transportation mode = link layer protocol

travel agent = routing algorithm

Data Link Layer 5-5

Link Layer Services framing link access

encapsulate datagram into frame adding header trailer

channel access if shared medium ldquoMACrdquo addresses used in frame headers to identify source dest bull different from IP address

reliable delivery between adjacent nodes we learned how to do this already (chapter 3) seldom used on low bit-error link (fiber some twisted pair)

wireless links high error ratesbull Q why both link-level and end-end reliability

Data Link Layer 5-6

Link Layer Services (more) flow control

pacing between adjacent sending and receiving nodes

error detection errors caused by signal attenuation noise receiver detects presence of errors

bull signals sender for retransmission or drops frame

error correction receiver identifies and corrects bit error(s) without resorting to retransmission

half-duplex and full-duplex with half duplex nodes at both ends of link can transmit but not at same time

Data Link Layer 5-12

Internet checksum (review)

Sender treat segment

contents as sequence of 16-bit integers

checksum addition (1rsquos complement sum) of segment contents

sender puts checksum value into UDP checksum field

Receiver compute checksum of

received segment check if computed

checksum equals checksum field value NO - error detected YES - no error detected But maybe errors nonetheless

Goal detect ldquoerrorsrdquo (eg flipped bits) in transmitted packet (note used at transport layer only)

Data Link Layer 5-13

Checksumming Cyclic Redundancy Check view data bits D as a binary number choose r+1 bit pattern (generator) G goal choose r CRC bits R such that

ltDRgt exactly divisible by G (modulo 2) receiver knows G divides ltDRgt by G If non-

zero remainder error detected can detect all burst errors less than r+1 bits

widely used in practice (Ethernet 80211 WiFi ATM)

Data Link Layer 5-14

CRC ExampleWant

D2r XOR R = nGequivalently

D2r = nG XOR R equivalently if we divide D2r by G want remainder R

R = remainder[ ]

Multiple Access Links and ProtocolsTwo types of ldquolinksrdquo point-to-point

PPP for dial-up access point-to-point link between Ethernet switch and host

broadcast (shared wire or medium) old-fashioned Ethernet upstream HFC 80211 wireless LAN

shared wire (eg cabled Ethernet)

shared RF (eg 80211 WiFi)

shared RF(satellite)

humans at acocktail party

(shared air acoustical)

Data Link Layer 5-17

Multiple Access protocols single shared broadcast channel two or more simultaneous transmissions by nodes interference collision if node receives two or more signals at the same time

multiple access protocol distributed algorithm that determines how nodes share channel ie determine when node can transmit

communication about channel sharing must use channel itself no out-of-band channel for coordination

Data Link Layer 5-18

Ideal Multiple Access ProtocolBroadcast channel of rate R bps1 when one node wants to transmit it can send at rate R

2 when M nodes want to transmit each can send at average rate RM

3 fully decentralized no special node to coordinate transmissions no synchronization of clocks slots

4 simple

Data Link Layer 5-19

MAC Protocols a taxonomy

Three broad classes Channel Partitioning

divide channel into smaller ldquopiecesrdquo (time slots frequency code space)

allocate piece to node for exclusive use Random Access

channel not divided allow collisions ldquorecoverrdquo from collisions

ldquoTaking turnsrdquo nodes take turns but nodes with more to send can take longer turns

Data Link Layer 5-20

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols TDMA

TDMA time division multiple access access to channel in rounds each station gets fixed length slot (length = pkt trans time) in each round

unused slots go idle example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt slots 256 idle

1 3 4 1 3 4

6-slotframe

Data Link Layer 5-21

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols FDMAFDMA frequency division multiple access

channel spectrum divided into frequency bands

each station assigned fixed frequency band unused transmission time in frequency bands go idle

example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt frequency bands 256 idle

frequency bands time

FDM cable

Wireless Mobile Networks 6-22

Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

used in several wireless broadcast channels (cellular satellite etc) standards

unique ldquocoderdquo assigned to each user ie code set partitioning

all users share same frequency but each user has own ldquochippingrdquo sequence (ie code) to encode data

encoded signal = (original data) X (chipping sequence)

decoding inner-product of encoded signal and chipping sequence

allows multiple users to ldquocoexistrdquo and transmit simultaneously with minimal interference (if codes are ldquoorthogonalrdquo)

Adaptive antennas

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Bit time 1 microsec for 10 Mbps Ethernet for K=1023 wait time is about 50 msec

Exponential Backoff Goal adapt

Switched Ethernet

(a) Hub (b) Switch

Data Link Layer 5-53

Hubshellip physical-layer (ldquodumbrdquo) repeaters

bits coming in one link go out all other links at same rate

all nodes connected to hub can collide with one another

no frame buffering no CSMACD at hub host NICs detect collisions

twisted pair

hub

Data Link Layer 5-54

Switch link-layer device smarter than hubs take active role store forward Ethernet frames examine incoming framersquos MAC address selectively forward frame to one-or-more outgoing links when frame is to be forwarded on segment uses CSMACD to access segment

transparent hosts are unaware of presence of switches

plug-and-play self-learning switches do not need to be configured

Data Link Layer 5-55

Switch allows multiple simultaneous transmissions

hosts have dedicated direct connection to switch

switches buffer packets Ethernet protocol used on each incoming link but no collisions full duplex each link is its own collision domain

Data Link Layer 5-5

Link Layer Services framing link access

encapsulate datagram into frame adding header trailer

channel access if shared medium ldquoMACrdquo addresses used in frame headers to identify source dest bull different from IP address

reliable delivery between adjacent nodes we learned how to do this already (chapter 3) seldom used on low bit-error link (fiber some twisted pair)

wireless links high error ratesbull Q why both link-level and end-end reliability

Data Link Layer 5-6

Link Layer Services (more) flow control

pacing between adjacent sending and receiving nodes

error detection errors caused by signal attenuation noise receiver detects presence of errors

bull signals sender for retransmission or drops frame

error correction receiver identifies and corrects bit error(s) without resorting to retransmission

half-duplex and full-duplex with half duplex nodes at both ends of link can transmit but not at same time

Data Link Layer 5-12

Internet checksum (review)

Sender treat segment

contents as sequence of 16-bit integers

checksum addition (1rsquos complement sum) of segment contents

sender puts checksum value into UDP checksum field

Receiver compute checksum of

received segment check if computed

checksum equals checksum field value NO - error detected YES - no error detected But maybe errors nonetheless

Goal detect ldquoerrorsrdquo (eg flipped bits) in transmitted packet (note used at transport layer only)

Data Link Layer 5-13

Checksumming Cyclic Redundancy Check view data bits D as a binary number choose r+1 bit pattern (generator) G goal choose r CRC bits R such that

ltDRgt exactly divisible by G (modulo 2) receiver knows G divides ltDRgt by G If non-

zero remainder error detected can detect all burst errors less than r+1 bits

widely used in practice (Ethernet 80211 WiFi ATM)

D2r = nG XOR R equivalently if we divide D2r by G want remainder R

Multiple Access Links and ProtocolsTwo types of ldquolinksrdquo point-to-point

PPP for dial-up access point-to-point link between Ethernet switch and host

broadcast (shared wire or medium) old-fashioned Ethernet upstream HFC 80211 wireless LAN

shared wire (eg cabled Ethernet)

shared RF (eg 80211 WiFi)

shared RF(satellite)

humans at acocktail party

(shared air acoustical)

Data Link Layer 5-17

Multiple Access protocols single shared broadcast channel two or more simultaneous transmissions by nodes interference collision if node receives two or more signals at the same time

multiple access protocol distributed algorithm that determines how nodes share channel ie determine when node can transmit

communication about channel sharing must use channel itself no out-of-band channel for coordination

Data Link Layer 5-18

Ideal Multiple Access ProtocolBroadcast channel of rate R bps1 when one node wants to transmit it can send at rate R

2 when M nodes want to transmit each can send at average rate RM

3 fully decentralized no special node to coordinate transmissions no synchronization of clocks slots

4 simple

Data Link Layer 5-19

MAC Protocols a taxonomy

Three broad classes Channel Partitioning

divide channel into smaller ldquopiecesrdquo (time slots frequency code space)

allocate piece to node for exclusive use Random Access

channel not divided allow collisions ldquorecoverrdquo from collisions

ldquoTaking turnsrdquo nodes take turns but nodes with more to send can take longer turns

Data Link Layer 5-20

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols TDMA

TDMA time division multiple access access to channel in rounds each station gets fixed length slot (length = pkt trans time) in each round

unused slots go idle example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt slots 256 idle

1 3 4 1 3 4

6-slotframe

Data Link Layer 5-21

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols FDMAFDMA frequency division multiple access

channel spectrum divided into frequency bands

each station assigned fixed frequency band unused transmission time in frequency bands go idle

example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt frequency bands 256 idle

frequency bands time

FDM cable

Wireless Mobile Networks 6-22

Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

used in several wireless broadcast channels (cellular satellite etc) standards

unique ldquocoderdquo assigned to each user ie code set partitioning

all users share same frequency but each user has own ldquochippingrdquo sequence (ie code) to encode data

encoded signal = (original data) X (chipping sequence)

decoding inner-product of encoded signal and chipping sequence

allows multiple users to ldquocoexistrdquo and transmit simultaneously with minimal interference (if codes are ldquoorthogonalrdquo)

Space Division Multiple Access SDMA

Control the radiated powerenergy for each user in space using spot beams (using the same frequency in different space)

Adaptive antennas

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Internet checksum (review)

Sender treat segment

contents as sequence of 16-bit integers

checksum addition (1rsquos complement sum) of segment contents

sender puts checksum value into UDP checksum field

Receiver compute checksum of

received segment check if computed

checksum equals checksum field value NO - error detected YES - no error detected But maybe errors nonetheless

Goal detect ldquoerrorsrdquo (eg flipped bits) in transmitted packet (note used at transport layer only)

Data Link Layer 5-13

Checksumming Cyclic Redundancy Check view data bits D as a binary number choose r+1 bit pattern (generator) G goal choose r CRC bits R such that

ltDRgt exactly divisible by G (modulo 2) receiver knows G divides ltDRgt by G If non-

zero remainder error detected can detect all burst errors less than r+1 bits

widely used in practice (Ethernet 80211 WiFi ATM)

Multiple Access Links and ProtocolsTwo types of ldquolinksrdquo point-to-point

PPP for dial-up access point-to-point link between Ethernet switch and host

broadcast (shared wire or medium) old-fashioned Ethernet upstream HFC 80211 wireless LAN

shared wire (eg cabled Ethernet)

shared RF (eg 80211 WiFi)

shared RF(satellite)

humans at acocktail party

(shared air acoustical)

Data Link Layer 5-17

Multiple Access protocols single shared broadcast channel two or more simultaneous transmissions by nodes interference collision if node receives two or more signals at the same time

multiple access protocol distributed algorithm that determines how nodes share channel ie determine when node can transmit

communication about channel sharing must use channel itself no out-of-band channel for coordination

Data Link Layer 5-18

Ideal Multiple Access ProtocolBroadcast channel of rate R bps1 when one node wants to transmit it can send at rate R

2 when M nodes want to transmit each can send at average rate RM

3 fully decentralized no special node to coordinate transmissions no synchronization of clocks slots

4 simple

Data Link Layer 5-19

MAC Protocols a taxonomy

Three broad classes Channel Partitioning

divide channel into smaller ldquopiecesrdquo (time slots frequency code space)

allocate piece to node for exclusive use Random Access

channel not divided allow collisions ldquorecoverrdquo from collisions

ldquoTaking turnsrdquo nodes take turns but nodes with more to send can take longer turns

Data Link Layer 5-20

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols TDMA

TDMA time division multiple access access to channel in rounds each station gets fixed length slot (length = pkt trans time) in each round

unused slots go idle example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt slots 256 idle

1 3 4 1 3 4

6-slotframe

Data Link Layer 5-21

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols FDMAFDMA frequency division multiple access

channel spectrum divided into frequency bands

each station assigned fixed frequency band unused transmission time in frequency bands go idle

example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt frequency bands 256 idle

frequency bands time

FDM cable

Wireless Mobile Networks 6-22

Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

used in several wireless broadcast channels (cellular satellite etc) standards

unique ldquocoderdquo assigned to each user ie code set partitioning

all users share same frequency but each user has own ldquochippingrdquo sequence (ie code) to encode data

encoded signal = (original data) X (chipping sequence)

decoding inner-product of encoded signal and chipping sequence

allows multiple users to ldquocoexistrdquo and transmit simultaneously with minimal interference (if codes are ldquoorthogonalrdquo)

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

Internet checksum (review)

Sender treat segment

contents as sequence of 16-bit integers

checksum addition (1rsquos complement sum) of segment contents

sender puts checksum value into UDP checksum field

Receiver compute checksum of

received segment check if computed

checksum equals checksum field value NO - error detected YES - no error detected But maybe errors nonetheless

Goal detect ldquoerrorsrdquo (eg flipped bits) in transmitted packet (note used at transport layer only)

Data Link Layer 5-13

Checksumming Cyclic Redundancy Check view data bits D as a binary number choose r+1 bit pattern (generator) G goal choose r CRC bits R such that

ltDRgt exactly divisible by G (modulo 2) receiver knows G divides ltDRgt by G If non-

zero remainder error detected can detect all burst errors less than r+1 bits

widely used in practice (Ethernet 80211 WiFi ATM)

Multiple Access Links and ProtocolsTwo types of ldquolinksrdquo point-to-point

PPP for dial-up access point-to-point link between Ethernet switch and host

broadcast (shared wire or medium) old-fashioned Ethernet upstream HFC 80211 wireless LAN

shared wire (eg cabled Ethernet)

shared RF (eg 80211 WiFi)

shared RF(satellite)

(shared air acoustical)

Data Link Layer 5-17

Multiple Access protocols single shared broadcast channel two or more simultaneous transmissions by nodes interference collision if node receives two or more signals at the same time

multiple access protocol distributed algorithm that determines how nodes share channel ie determine when node can transmit

communication about channel sharing must use channel itself no out-of-band channel for coordination

Data Link Layer 5-18

Ideal Multiple Access ProtocolBroadcast channel of rate R bps1 when one node wants to transmit it can send at rate R

2 when M nodes want to transmit each can send at average rate RM

3 fully decentralized no special node to coordinate transmissions no synchronization of clocks slots

4 simple

Data Link Layer 5-19

MAC Protocols a taxonomy

Three broad classes Channel Partitioning

divide channel into smaller ldquopiecesrdquo (time slots frequency code space)

allocate piece to node for exclusive use Random Access

channel not divided allow collisions ldquorecoverrdquo from collisions

ldquoTaking turnsrdquo nodes take turns but nodes with more to send can take longer turns

Data Link Layer 5-20

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols TDMA

TDMA time division multiple access access to channel in rounds each station gets fixed length slot (length = pkt trans time) in each round

unused slots go idle example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt slots 256 idle

6-slotframe

Data Link Layer 5-21

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols FDMAFDMA frequency division multiple access

channel spectrum divided into frequency bands

each station assigned fixed frequency band unused transmission time in frequency bands go idle

example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt frequency bands 256 idle

Wireless Mobile Networks 6-22

Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

used in several wireless broadcast channels (cellular satellite etc) standards

unique ldquocoderdquo assigned to each user ie code set partitioning

all users share same frequency but each user has own ldquochippingrdquo sequence (ie code) to encode data

encoded signal = (original data) X (chipping sequence)

decoding inner-product of encoded signal and chipping sequence

allows multiple users to ldquocoexistrdquo and transmit simultaneously with minimal interference (if codes are ldquoorthogonalrdquo)

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Internet checksum (review)

Sender treat segment

contents as sequence of 16-bit integers

checksum addition (1rsquos complement sum) of segment contents

sender puts checksum value into UDP checksum field

Receiver compute checksum of

received segment check if computed

checksum equals checksum field value NO - error detected YES - no error detected But maybe errors nonetheless

Goal detect ldquoerrorsrdquo (eg flipped bits) in transmitted packet (note used at transport layer only)

Data Link Layer 5-13

Checksumming Cyclic Redundancy Check view data bits D as a binary number choose r+1 bit pattern (generator) G goal choose r CRC bits R such that

ltDRgt exactly divisible by G (modulo 2) receiver knows G divides ltDRgt by G If non-

zero remainder error detected can detect all burst errors less than r+1 bits

widely used in practice (Ethernet 80211 WiFi ATM)

D2r XOR R = nGequivalently

D2r = nG XOR R equivalently if we divide D2r by G want remainder R

Multiple Access Links and ProtocolsTwo types of ldquolinksrdquo point-to-point

PPP for dial-up access point-to-point link between Ethernet switch and host

broadcast (shared wire or medium) old-fashioned Ethernet upstream HFC 80211 wireless LAN

shared wire (eg cabled Ethernet)

shared RF (eg 80211 WiFi)

Data Link Layer 5-17

Multiple Access protocols single shared broadcast channel two or more simultaneous transmissions by nodes interference collision if node receives two or more signals at the same time

multiple access protocol distributed algorithm that determines how nodes share channel ie determine when node can transmit

communication about channel sharing must use channel itself no out-of-band channel for coordination

Data Link Layer 5-18

Ideal Multiple Access ProtocolBroadcast channel of rate R bps1 when one node wants to transmit it can send at rate R

2 when M nodes want to transmit each can send at average rate RM

3 fully decentralized no special node to coordinate transmissions no synchronization of clocks slots

4 simple

Data Link Layer 5-19

MAC Protocols a taxonomy

Three broad classes Channel Partitioning

divide channel into smaller ldquopiecesrdquo (time slots frequency code space)

allocate piece to node for exclusive use Random Access

channel not divided allow collisions ldquorecoverrdquo from collisions

ldquoTaking turnsrdquo nodes take turns but nodes with more to send can take longer turns

Data Link Layer 5-20

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols TDMA

TDMA time division multiple access access to channel in rounds each station gets fixed length slot (length = pkt trans time) in each round

unused slots go idle example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt slots 256 idle

Data Link Layer 5-21

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols FDMAFDMA frequency division multiple access

channel spectrum divided into frequency bands

each station assigned fixed frequency band unused transmission time in frequency bands go idle

example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt frequency bands 256 idle

Wireless Mobile Networks 6-22

Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

used in several wireless broadcast channels (cellular satellite etc) standards

unique ldquocoderdquo assigned to each user ie code set partitioning

all users share same frequency but each user has own ldquochippingrdquo sequence (ie code) to encode data

encoded signal = (original data) X (chipping sequence)

decoding inner-product of encoded signal and chipping sequence

allows multiple users to ldquocoexistrdquo and transmit simultaneously with minimal interference (if codes are ldquoorthogonalrdquo)

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

Internet checksum (review)

Sender treat segment

contents as sequence of 16-bit integers

checksum addition (1rsquos complement sum) of segment contents

sender puts checksum value into UDP checksum field

Receiver compute checksum of

received segment check if computed

checksum equals checksum field value NO - error detected YES - no error detected But maybe errors nonetheless

Goal detect ldquoerrorsrdquo (eg flipped bits) in transmitted packet (note used at transport layer only)

Data Link Layer 5-13

Checksumming Cyclic Redundancy Check view data bits D as a binary number choose r+1 bit pattern (generator) G goal choose r CRC bits R such that

ltDRgt exactly divisible by G (modulo 2) receiver knows G divides ltDRgt by G If non-

zero remainder error detected can detect all burst errors less than r+1 bits

widely used in practice (Ethernet 80211 WiFi ATM)

D2r XOR R = nGequivalently

D2r = nG XOR R equivalently if we divide D2r by G want remainder R

Multiple Access Links and ProtocolsTwo types of ldquolinksrdquo point-to-point

PPP for dial-up access point-to-point link between Ethernet switch and host

broadcast (shared wire or medium) old-fashioned Ethernet upstream HFC 80211 wireless LAN

shared wire (eg cabled Ethernet)

shared RF (eg 80211 WiFi)

shared RF(satellite)

humans at acocktail party

(shared air acoustical)

Data Link Layer 5-17

Multiple Access protocols single shared broadcast channel two or more simultaneous transmissions by nodes interference collision if node receives two or more signals at the same time

multiple access protocol distributed algorithm that determines how nodes share channel ie determine when node can transmit

communication about channel sharing must use channel itself no out-of-band channel for coordination

Data Link Layer 5-18

Ideal Multiple Access ProtocolBroadcast channel of rate R bps1 when one node wants to transmit it can send at rate R

2 when M nodes want to transmit each can send at average rate RM

3 fully decentralized no special node to coordinate transmissions no synchronization of clocks slots

4 simple

Data Link Layer 5-19

MAC Protocols a taxonomy

Three broad classes Channel Partitioning

divide channel into smaller ldquopiecesrdquo (time slots frequency code space)

allocate piece to node for exclusive use Random Access

channel not divided allow collisions ldquorecoverrdquo from collisions

ldquoTaking turnsrdquo nodes take turns but nodes with more to send can take longer turns

Data Link Layer 5-20

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols TDMA

TDMA time division multiple access access to channel in rounds each station gets fixed length slot (length = pkt trans time) in each round

unused slots go idle example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt slots 256 idle

1 3 4 1 3 4

6-slotframe

Data Link Layer 5-21

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols FDMAFDMA frequency division multiple access

channel spectrum divided into frequency bands

each station assigned fixed frequency band unused transmission time in frequency bands go idle

example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt frequency bands 256 idle

frequency bands time

FDM cable

Wireless Mobile Networks 6-22

Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

used in several wireless broadcast channels (cellular satellite etc) standards

unique ldquocoderdquo assigned to each user ie code set partitioning

all users share same frequency but each user has own ldquochippingrdquo sequence (ie code) to encode data

encoded signal = (original data) X (chipping sequence)

decoding inner-product of encoded signal and chipping sequence

allows multiple users to ldquocoexistrdquo and transmit simultaneously with minimal interference (if codes are ldquoorthogonalrdquo)

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Data Link Layer 5-48

Ethernetrsquos CSMACD (more)

Jam Signal make sure all other transmitters are aware of collision 48 bits

Bit time 1 microsec for 10 Mbps Ethernet for K=1023 wait time is about 50 msec

Exponential Backoff Goal adapt

Page 10: Data Link Layer5-1 Chapter 5: The Data Link Layer Our goals:  understand principles behind data link layer services:  error detection, correction  sharing

Data Link Layer 5-10

Error DetectionEDC= Error Detection and Correction bits (redundancy)D = Data protected by error checking may include header fields

bull Error detection not 100 reliablebull protocol may miss some errors but rarelybull larger EDC field yields better detection and correction otherwise

Data Link Layer 5-12

Internet checksum (review)

Sender treat segment

contents as sequence of 16-bit integers

checksum addition (1rsquos complement sum) of segment contents

sender puts checksum value into UDP checksum field

Receiver compute checksum of

received segment check if computed

checksum equals checksum field value NO - error detected YES - no error detected But maybe errors nonetheless

Goal detect ldquoerrorsrdquo (eg flipped bits) in transmitted packet (note used at transport layer only)

Data Link Layer 5-13

Checksumming Cyclic Redundancy Check view data bits D as a binary number choose r+1 bit pattern (generator) G goal choose r CRC bits R such that

ltDRgt exactly divisible by G (modulo 2) receiver knows G divides ltDRgt by G If non-

zero remainder error detected can detect all burst errors less than r+1 bits

widely used in practice (Ethernet 80211 WiFi ATM)

Data Link Layer 5-14

CRC ExampleWant

D2r XOR R = nGequivalently

D2r = nG XOR R equivalently if we divide D2r by G want remainder R

R = remainder[ ]

Multiple Access Links and ProtocolsTwo types of ldquolinksrdquo point-to-point

PPP for dial-up access point-to-point link between Ethernet switch and host

broadcast (shared wire or medium) old-fashioned Ethernet upstream HFC 80211 wireless LAN

shared wire (eg cabled Ethernet)

shared RF (eg 80211 WiFi)

shared RF(satellite)

humans at acocktail party

(shared air acoustical)

Data Link Layer 5-17

Multiple Access protocols single shared broadcast channel two or more simultaneous transmissions by nodes interference collision if node receives two or more signals at the same time

multiple access protocol distributed algorithm that determines how nodes share channel ie determine when node can transmit

communication about channel sharing must use channel itself no out-of-band channel for coordination

Data Link Layer 5-18

Ideal Multiple Access ProtocolBroadcast channel of rate R bps1 when one node wants to transmit it can send at rate R

2 when M nodes want to transmit each can send at average rate RM

3 fully decentralized no special node to coordinate transmissions no synchronization of clocks slots

4 simple

Data Link Layer 5-19

MAC Protocols a taxonomy

Three broad classes Channel Partitioning

divide channel into smaller ldquopiecesrdquo (time slots frequency code space)

allocate piece to node for exclusive use Random Access

channel not divided allow collisions ldquorecoverrdquo from collisions

ldquoTaking turnsrdquo nodes take turns but nodes with more to send can take longer turns

Data Link Layer 5-20

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols TDMA

TDMA time division multiple access access to channel in rounds each station gets fixed length slot (length = pkt trans time) in each round

unused slots go idle example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt slots 256 idle

1 3 4 1 3 4

6-slotframe

Data Link Layer 5-21

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols FDMAFDMA frequency division multiple access

channel spectrum divided into frequency bands

each station assigned fixed frequency band unused transmission time in frequency bands go idle

example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt frequency bands 256 idle

frequency bands time

FDM cable

Wireless Mobile Networks 6-22

Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

used in several wireless broadcast channels (cellular satellite etc) standards

unique ldquocoderdquo assigned to each user ie code set partitioning

all users share same frequency but each user has own ldquochippingrdquo sequence (ie code) to encode data

encoded signal = (original data) X (chipping sequence)

decoding inner-product of encoded signal and chipping sequence

allows multiple users to ldquocoexistrdquo and transmit simultaneously with minimal interference (if codes are ldquoorthogonalrdquo)

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Data Link Layer 5-12

Internet checksum (review)

Sender treat segment

contents as sequence of 16-bit integers

checksum addition (1rsquos complement sum) of segment contents

sender puts checksum value into UDP checksum field

Receiver compute checksum of

received segment check if computed

checksum equals checksum field value NO - error detected YES - no error detected But maybe errors nonetheless

Goal detect ldquoerrorsrdquo (eg flipped bits) in transmitted packet (note used at transport layer only)

Data Link Layer 5-13

Checksumming Cyclic Redundancy Check view data bits D as a binary number choose r+1 bit pattern (generator) G goal choose r CRC bits R such that

ltDRgt exactly divisible by G (modulo 2) receiver knows G divides ltDRgt by G If non-

zero remainder error detected can detect all burst errors less than r+1 bits

widely used in practice (Ethernet 80211 WiFi ATM)

Data Link Layer 5-14

CRC ExampleWant

D2r XOR R = nGequivalently

D2r = nG XOR R equivalently if we divide D2r by G want remainder R

Multiple Access Links and ProtocolsTwo types of ldquolinksrdquo point-to-point

PPP for dial-up access point-to-point link between Ethernet switch and host

broadcast (shared wire or medium) old-fashioned Ethernet upstream HFC 80211 wireless LAN

shared wire (eg cabled Ethernet)

shared RF (eg 80211 WiFi)

shared RF(satellite)

humans at acocktail party

(shared air acoustical)

Data Link Layer 5-17

Multiple Access protocols single shared broadcast channel two or more simultaneous transmissions by nodes interference collision if node receives two or more signals at the same time

multiple access protocol distributed algorithm that determines how nodes share channel ie determine when node can transmit

communication about channel sharing must use channel itself no out-of-band channel for coordination

Data Link Layer 5-18

Ideal Multiple Access ProtocolBroadcast channel of rate R bps1 when one node wants to transmit it can send at rate R

2 when M nodes want to transmit each can send at average rate RM

3 fully decentralized no special node to coordinate transmissions no synchronization of clocks slots

4 simple

Data Link Layer 5-19

MAC Protocols a taxonomy

Three broad classes Channel Partitioning

divide channel into smaller ldquopiecesrdquo (time slots frequency code space)

allocate piece to node for exclusive use Random Access

channel not divided allow collisions ldquorecoverrdquo from collisions

ldquoTaking turnsrdquo nodes take turns but nodes with more to send can take longer turns

Data Link Layer 5-20

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols TDMA

TDMA time division multiple access access to channel in rounds each station gets fixed length slot (length = pkt trans time) in each round

unused slots go idle example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt slots 256 idle

1 3 4 1 3 4

6-slotframe

Data Link Layer 5-21

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols FDMAFDMA frequency division multiple access

channel spectrum divided into frequency bands

each station assigned fixed frequency band unused transmission time in frequency bands go idle

example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt frequency bands 256 idle

frequency bands time

FDM cable

Wireless Mobile Networks 6-22

Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

used in several wireless broadcast channels (cellular satellite etc) standards

unique ldquocoderdquo assigned to each user ie code set partitioning

all users share same frequency but each user has own ldquochippingrdquo sequence (ie code) to encode data

encoded signal = (original data) X (chipping sequence)

decoding inner-product of encoded signal and chipping sequence

allows multiple users to ldquocoexistrdquo and transmit simultaneously with minimal interference (if codes are ldquoorthogonalrdquo)

Adaptive antennas

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Data Link Layer 5-12

Internet checksum (review)

Sender treat segment

contents as sequence of 16-bit integers

checksum addition (1rsquos complement sum) of segment contents

sender puts checksum value into UDP checksum field

Receiver compute checksum of

received segment check if computed

checksum equals checksum field value NO - error detected YES - no error detected But maybe errors nonetheless

Goal detect ldquoerrorsrdquo (eg flipped bits) in transmitted packet (note used at transport layer only)

Data Link Layer 5-13

Checksumming Cyclic Redundancy Check view data bits D as a binary number choose r+1 bit pattern (generator) G goal choose r CRC bits R such that

ltDRgt exactly divisible by G (modulo 2) receiver knows G divides ltDRgt by G If non-

zero remainder error detected can detect all burst errors less than r+1 bits

widely used in practice (Ethernet 80211 WiFi ATM)

Data Link Layer 5-14

CRC ExampleWant

D2r XOR R = nGequivalently

D2r = nG XOR R equivalently if we divide D2r by G want remainder R

R = remainder[ ]

Multiple Access Links and ProtocolsTwo types of ldquolinksrdquo point-to-point

PPP for dial-up access point-to-point link between Ethernet switch and host

broadcast (shared wire or medium) old-fashioned Ethernet upstream HFC 80211 wireless LAN

shared wire (eg cabled Ethernet)

shared RF (eg 80211 WiFi)

shared RF(satellite)

humans at acocktail party

(shared air acoustical)

Data Link Layer 5-17

Multiple Access protocols single shared broadcast channel two or more simultaneous transmissions by nodes interference collision if node receives two or more signals at the same time

multiple access protocol distributed algorithm that determines how nodes share channel ie determine when node can transmit

communication about channel sharing must use channel itself no out-of-band channel for coordination

Data Link Layer 5-18

Ideal Multiple Access ProtocolBroadcast channel of rate R bps1 when one node wants to transmit it can send at rate R

2 when M nodes want to transmit each can send at average rate RM

3 fully decentralized no special node to coordinate transmissions no synchronization of clocks slots

4 simple

Data Link Layer 5-19

MAC Protocols a taxonomy

Three broad classes Channel Partitioning

divide channel into smaller ldquopiecesrdquo (time slots frequency code space)

allocate piece to node for exclusive use Random Access

channel not divided allow collisions ldquorecoverrdquo from collisions

ldquoTaking turnsrdquo nodes take turns but nodes with more to send can take longer turns

Data Link Layer 5-20

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols TDMA

TDMA time division multiple access access to channel in rounds each station gets fixed length slot (length = pkt trans time) in each round

unused slots go idle example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt slots 256 idle

1 3 4 1 3 4

6-slotframe

Data Link Layer 5-21

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols FDMAFDMA frequency division multiple access

channel spectrum divided into frequency bands

each station assigned fixed frequency band unused transmission time in frequency bands go idle

example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt frequency bands 256 idle

frequency bands time

FDM cable

Wireless Mobile Networks 6-22

Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

used in several wireless broadcast channels (cellular satellite etc) standards

unique ldquocoderdquo assigned to each user ie code set partitioning

all users share same frequency but each user has own ldquochippingrdquo sequence (ie code) to encode data

encoded signal = (original data) X (chipping sequence)

decoding inner-product of encoded signal and chipping sequence

allows multiple users to ldquocoexistrdquo and transmit simultaneously with minimal interference (if codes are ldquoorthogonalrdquo)

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

ltDRgt exactly divisible by G (modulo 2) receiver knows G divides ltDRgt by G If non-

zero remainder error detected can detect all burst errors less than r+1 bits

Multiple Access Links and ProtocolsTwo types of ldquolinksrdquo point-to-point

PPP for dial-up access point-to-point link between Ethernet switch and host

broadcast (shared wire or medium) old-fashioned Ethernet upstream HFC 80211 wireless LAN

shared wire (eg cabled Ethernet)

shared RF (eg 80211 WiFi)

shared RF(satellite)

humans at acocktail party

(shared air acoustical)

Data Link Layer 5-17

Multiple Access protocols single shared broadcast channel two or more simultaneous transmissions by nodes interference collision if node receives two or more signals at the same time

multiple access protocol distributed algorithm that determines how nodes share channel ie determine when node can transmit

communication about channel sharing must use channel itself no out-of-band channel for coordination

Data Link Layer 5-18

Ideal Multiple Access ProtocolBroadcast channel of rate R bps1 when one node wants to transmit it can send at rate R

2 when M nodes want to transmit each can send at average rate RM

3 fully decentralized no special node to coordinate transmissions no synchronization of clocks slots

4 simple

Data Link Layer 5-19

MAC Protocols a taxonomy

Three broad classes Channel Partitioning

divide channel into smaller ldquopiecesrdquo (time slots frequency code space)

allocate piece to node for exclusive use Random Access

channel not divided allow collisions ldquorecoverrdquo from collisions

ldquoTaking turnsrdquo nodes take turns but nodes with more to send can take longer turns

Data Link Layer 5-20

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols TDMA

TDMA time division multiple access access to channel in rounds each station gets fixed length slot (length = pkt trans time) in each round

unused slots go idle example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt slots 256 idle

1 3 4 1 3 4

6-slotframe

Data Link Layer 5-21

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols FDMAFDMA frequency division multiple access

channel spectrum divided into frequency bands

each station assigned fixed frequency band unused transmission time in frequency bands go idle

example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt frequency bands 256 idle

frequency bands time

Wireless Mobile Networks 6-22

Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

used in several wireless broadcast channels (cellular satellite etc) standards

unique ldquocoderdquo assigned to each user ie code set partitioning

all users share same frequency but each user has own ldquochippingrdquo sequence (ie code) to encode data

encoded signal = (original data) X (chipping sequence)

decoding inner-product of encoded signal and chipping sequence

allows multiple users to ldquocoexistrdquo and transmit simultaneously with minimal interference (if codes are ldquoorthogonalrdquo)

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Multiple Access Links and ProtocolsTwo types of ldquolinksrdquo point-to-point

PPP for dial-up access point-to-point link between Ethernet switch and host

broadcast (shared wire or medium) old-fashioned Ethernet upstream HFC 80211 wireless LAN

shared wire (eg cabled Ethernet)

shared RF (eg 80211 WiFi)

shared RF(satellite)

humans at acocktail party

(shared air acoustical)

Data Link Layer 5-17

Multiple Access protocols single shared broadcast channel two or more simultaneous transmissions by nodes interference collision if node receives two or more signals at the same time

multiple access protocol distributed algorithm that determines how nodes share channel ie determine when node can transmit

communication about channel sharing must use channel itself no out-of-band channel for coordination

Data Link Layer 5-18

Ideal Multiple Access ProtocolBroadcast channel of rate R bps1 when one node wants to transmit it can send at rate R

2 when M nodes want to transmit each can send at average rate RM

3 fully decentralized no special node to coordinate transmissions no synchronization of clocks slots

4 simple

Data Link Layer 5-19

MAC Protocols a taxonomy

Three broad classes Channel Partitioning

divide channel into smaller ldquopiecesrdquo (time slots frequency code space)

allocate piece to node for exclusive use Random Access

channel not divided allow collisions ldquorecoverrdquo from collisions

ldquoTaking turnsrdquo nodes take turns but nodes with more to send can take longer turns

Data Link Layer 5-20

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols TDMA

TDMA time division multiple access access to channel in rounds each station gets fixed length slot (length = pkt trans time) in each round

unused slots go idle example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt slots 256 idle

1 3 4 1 3 4

6-slotframe

Data Link Layer 5-21

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols FDMAFDMA frequency division multiple access

channel spectrum divided into frequency bands

each station assigned fixed frequency band unused transmission time in frequency bands go idle

example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt frequency bands 256 idle

frequency bands time

FDM cable

Wireless Mobile Networks 6-22

Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

used in several wireless broadcast channels (cellular satellite etc) standards

unique ldquocoderdquo assigned to each user ie code set partitioning

all users share same frequency but each user has own ldquochippingrdquo sequence (ie code) to encode data

encoded signal = (original data) X (chipping sequence)

decoding inner-product of encoded signal and chipping sequence

allows multiple users to ldquocoexistrdquo and transmit simultaneously with minimal interference (if codes are ldquoorthogonalrdquo)

Adaptive antennas

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

Multiple Access Links and ProtocolsTwo types of ldquolinksrdquo point-to-point

PPP for dial-up access point-to-point link between Ethernet switch and host

broadcast (shared wire or medium) old-fashioned Ethernet upstream HFC 80211 wireless LAN

shared wire (eg cabled Ethernet)

shared RF (eg 80211 WiFi)

shared RF(satellite)

humans at acocktail party

(shared air acoustical)

Data Link Layer 5-17

Multiple Access protocols single shared broadcast channel two or more simultaneous transmissions by nodes interference collision if node receives two or more signals at the same time

multiple access protocol distributed algorithm that determines how nodes share channel ie determine when node can transmit

communication about channel sharing must use channel itself no out-of-band channel for coordination

Data Link Layer 5-18

Ideal Multiple Access ProtocolBroadcast channel of rate R bps1 when one node wants to transmit it can send at rate R

2 when M nodes want to transmit each can send at average rate RM

3 fully decentralized no special node to coordinate transmissions no synchronization of clocks slots

4 simple

Data Link Layer 5-19

MAC Protocols a taxonomy

Three broad classes Channel Partitioning

divide channel into smaller ldquopiecesrdquo (time slots frequency code space)

allocate piece to node for exclusive use Random Access

channel not divided allow collisions ldquorecoverrdquo from collisions

ldquoTaking turnsrdquo nodes take turns but nodes with more to send can take longer turns

Data Link Layer 5-20

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols TDMA

TDMA time division multiple access access to channel in rounds each station gets fixed length slot (length = pkt trans time) in each round

unused slots go idle example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt slots 256 idle

1 3 4 1 3 4

6-slotframe

Data Link Layer 5-21

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols FDMAFDMA frequency division multiple access

channel spectrum divided into frequency bands

each station assigned fixed frequency band unused transmission time in frequency bands go idle

example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt frequency bands 256 idle

frequency bands time

FDM cable

Wireless Mobile Networks 6-22

Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

used in several wireless broadcast channels (cellular satellite etc) standards

unique ldquocoderdquo assigned to each user ie code set partitioning

all users share same frequency but each user has own ldquochippingrdquo sequence (ie code) to encode data

encoded signal = (original data) X (chipping sequence)

decoding inner-product of encoded signal and chipping sequence

allows multiple users to ldquocoexistrdquo and transmit simultaneously with minimal interference (if codes are ldquoorthogonalrdquo)

Space Division Multiple Access SDMA

Control the radiated powerenergy for each user in space using spot beams (using the same frequency in different space)

Adaptive antennas

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

Data Link Layer 5-16

Multiple Access Links and ProtocolsTwo types of ldquolinksrdquo point-to-point

PPP for dial-up access point-to-point link between Ethernet switch and host

broadcast (shared wire or medium) old-fashioned Ethernet upstream HFC 80211 wireless LAN

shared wire (eg cabled Ethernet)

shared RF (eg 80211 WiFi)

shared RF(satellite)

humans at acocktail party

(shared air acoustical)

Data Link Layer 5-17

Multiple Access protocols single shared broadcast channel two or more simultaneous transmissions by nodes interference collision if node receives two or more signals at the same time

multiple access protocol distributed algorithm that determines how nodes share channel ie determine when node can transmit

communication about channel sharing must use channel itself no out-of-band channel for coordination

Data Link Layer 5-18

Ideal Multiple Access ProtocolBroadcast channel of rate R bps1 when one node wants to transmit it can send at rate R

2 when M nodes want to transmit each can send at average rate RM

3 fully decentralized no special node to coordinate transmissions no synchronization of clocks slots

4 simple

Data Link Layer 5-19

MAC Protocols a taxonomy

Three broad classes Channel Partitioning

divide channel into smaller ldquopiecesrdquo (time slots frequency code space)

allocate piece to node for exclusive use Random Access

channel not divided allow collisions ldquorecoverrdquo from collisions

ldquoTaking turnsrdquo nodes take turns but nodes with more to send can take longer turns

Data Link Layer 5-20

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols TDMA

TDMA time division multiple access access to channel in rounds each station gets fixed length slot (length = pkt trans time) in each round

unused slots go idle example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt slots 256 idle

1 3 4 1 3 4

6-slotframe

Data Link Layer 5-21

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols FDMAFDMA frequency division multiple access

channel spectrum divided into frequency bands

each station assigned fixed frequency band unused transmission time in frequency bands go idle

example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt frequency bands 256 idle

frequency bands time

FDM cable

Wireless Mobile Networks 6-22

Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

used in several wireless broadcast channels (cellular satellite etc) standards

unique ldquocoderdquo assigned to each user ie code set partitioning

all users share same frequency but each user has own ldquochippingrdquo sequence (ie code) to encode data

encoded signal = (original data) X (chipping sequence)

decoding inner-product of encoded signal and chipping sequence

allows multiple users to ldquocoexistrdquo and transmit simultaneously with minimal interference (if codes are ldquoorthogonalrdquo)

Adaptive antennas

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

human analogy the polite conversationalist

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

Page 17: Data Link Layer5-1 Chapter 5: The Data Link Layer Our goals:  understand principles behind data link layer services:  error detection, correction  sharing

Data Link Layer 5-17

Multiple Access protocols single shared broadcast channel two or more simultaneous transmissions by nodes interference collision if node receives two or more signals at the same time

multiple access protocol distributed algorithm that determines how nodes share channel ie determine when node can transmit

communication about channel sharing must use channel itself no out-of-band channel for coordination

Data Link Layer 5-18

Ideal Multiple Access ProtocolBroadcast channel of rate R bps1 when one node wants to transmit it can send at rate R

2 when M nodes want to transmit each can send at average rate RM

3 fully decentralized no special node to coordinate transmissions no synchronization of clocks slots

4 simple

Data Link Layer 5-19

MAC Protocols a taxonomy

Three broad classes Channel Partitioning

divide channel into smaller ldquopiecesrdquo (time slots frequency code space)

allocate piece to node for exclusive use Random Access

channel not divided allow collisions ldquorecoverrdquo from collisions

ldquoTaking turnsrdquo nodes take turns but nodes with more to send can take longer turns

Data Link Layer 5-20

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols TDMA

TDMA time division multiple access access to channel in rounds each station gets fixed length slot (length = pkt trans time) in each round

unused slots go idle example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt slots 256 idle

1 3 4 1 3 4

6-slotframe

Data Link Layer 5-21

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols FDMAFDMA frequency division multiple access

channel spectrum divided into frequency bands

each station assigned fixed frequency band unused transmission time in frequency bands go idle

example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt frequency bands 256 idle

frequency bands time

FDM cable

Wireless Mobile Networks 6-22

Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

used in several wireless broadcast channels (cellular satellite etc) standards

unique ldquocoderdquo assigned to each user ie code set partitioning

all users share same frequency but each user has own ldquochippingrdquo sequence (ie code) to encode data

encoded signal = (original data) X (chipping sequence)

decoding inner-product of encoded signal and chipping sequence

allows multiple users to ldquocoexistrdquo and transmit simultaneously with minimal interference (if codes are ldquoorthogonalrdquo)

Adaptive antennas

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Data Link Layer 5-18

Ideal Multiple Access ProtocolBroadcast channel of rate R bps1 when one node wants to transmit it can send at rate R

2 when M nodes want to transmit each can send at average rate RM

3 fully decentralized no special node to coordinate transmissions no synchronization of clocks slots

4 simple

Data Link Layer 5-19

MAC Protocols a taxonomy

Three broad classes Channel Partitioning

divide channel into smaller ldquopiecesrdquo (time slots frequency code space)

allocate piece to node for exclusive use Random Access

channel not divided allow collisions ldquorecoverrdquo from collisions

ldquoTaking turnsrdquo nodes take turns but nodes with more to send can take longer turns

Data Link Layer 5-20

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols TDMA

TDMA time division multiple access access to channel in rounds each station gets fixed length slot (length = pkt trans time) in each round

unused slots go idle example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt slots 256 idle

Data Link Layer 5-21

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols FDMAFDMA frequency division multiple access

channel spectrum divided into frequency bands

each station assigned fixed frequency band unused transmission time in frequency bands go idle

example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt frequency bands 256 idle

FDM cable

Wireless Mobile Networks 6-22

Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

used in several wireless broadcast channels (cellular satellite etc) standards

unique ldquocoderdquo assigned to each user ie code set partitioning

all users share same frequency but each user has own ldquochippingrdquo sequence (ie code) to encode data

encoded signal = (original data) X (chipping sequence)

decoding inner-product of encoded signal and chipping sequence

allows multiple users to ldquocoexistrdquo and transmit simultaneously with minimal interference (if codes are ldquoorthogonalrdquo)

Adaptive antennas

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

Data Link Layer 5-19

MAC Protocols a taxonomy

Three broad classes Channel Partitioning

divide channel into smaller ldquopiecesrdquo (time slots frequency code space)

allocate piece to node for exclusive use Random Access

channel not divided allow collisions ldquorecoverrdquo from collisions

ldquoTaking turnsrdquo nodes take turns but nodes with more to send can take longer turns

Data Link Layer 5-20

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols TDMA

TDMA time division multiple access access to channel in rounds each station gets fixed length slot (length = pkt trans time) in each round

unused slots go idle example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt slots 256 idle

1 3 4 1 3 4

6-slotframe

Data Link Layer 5-21

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols FDMAFDMA frequency division multiple access

channel spectrum divided into frequency bands

each station assigned fixed frequency band unused transmission time in frequency bands go idle

example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt frequency bands 256 idle

frequency bands time

FDM cable

Wireless Mobile Networks 6-22

Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

used in several wireless broadcast channels (cellular satellite etc) standards

unique ldquocoderdquo assigned to each user ie code set partitioning

all users share same frequency but each user has own ldquochippingrdquo sequence (ie code) to encode data

encoded signal = (original data) X (chipping sequence)

decoding inner-product of encoded signal and chipping sequence

allows multiple users to ldquocoexistrdquo and transmit simultaneously with minimal interference (if codes are ldquoorthogonalrdquo)

Space Division Multiple Access SDMA

Control the radiated powerenergy for each user in space using spot beams (using the same frequency in different space)

Adaptive antennas

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Data Link Layer 5-48

Bit time 1 microsec for 10 Mbps Ethernet for K=1023 wait time is about 50 msec

Exponential Backoff Goal adapt

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols TDMA

TDMA time division multiple access access to channel in rounds each station gets fixed length slot (length = pkt trans time) in each round

unused slots go idle example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt slots 256 idle

Wireless Mobile Networks 6-22

Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

used in several wireless broadcast channels (cellular satellite etc) standards

unique ldquocoderdquo assigned to each user ie code set partitioning

all users share same frequency but each user has own ldquochippingrdquo sequence (ie code) to encode data

encoded signal = (original data) X (chipping sequence)

decoding inner-product of encoded signal and chipping sequence

allows multiple users to ldquocoexistrdquo and transmit simultaneously with minimal interference (if codes are ldquoorthogonalrdquo)

Adaptive antennas

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

Channel Partitioning MAC protocols FDMAFDMA frequency division multiple access

channel spectrum divided into frequency bands

each station assigned fixed frequency band unused transmission time in frequency bands go idle

example 6-station LAN 134 have pkt frequency bands 256 idle

frequency bands time

FDM cable

Wireless Mobile Networks 6-22

Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

used in several wireless broadcast channels (cellular satellite etc) standards

unique ldquocoderdquo assigned to each user ie code set partitioning

all users share same frequency but each user has own ldquochippingrdquo sequence (ie code) to encode data

encoded signal = (original data) X (chipping sequence)

decoding inner-product of encoded signal and chipping sequence

allows multiple users to ldquocoexistrdquo and transmit simultaneously with minimal interference (if codes are ldquoorthogonalrdquo)

Adaptive antennas

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

Wireless Mobile Networks 6-22

Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

used in several wireless broadcast channels (cellular satellite etc) standards

unique ldquocoderdquo assigned to each user ie code set partitioning

all users share same frequency but each user has own ldquochippingrdquo sequence (ie code) to encode data

encoded signal = (original data) X (chipping sequence)

decoding inner-product of encoded signal and chipping sequence

allows multiple users to ldquocoexistrdquo and transmit simultaneously with minimal interference (if codes are ldquoorthogonalrdquo)

Adaptive antennas

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Adaptive antennas

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Data Link Layer 5-48

Bit time 1 microsec for 10 Mbps Ethernet for K=1023 wait time is about 50 msec

Exponential Backoff Goal adapt

CDMA two-sender interference

Space Division Multiple Access SDMA

Control the radiated powerenergy for each user in space using spot beams (using the same frequency in different space)

Adaptive antennas

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Space Division Multiple Access SDMA

Control the radiated powerenergy for each user in space using spot beams (using the same frequency in different space)

Adaptive antennas

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

human analogy the polite conversationalist

ldquoTaking Turnsrdquo MAC protocolschannel partitioning MAC protocols

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Data Link Layer 5-48

Ethernetrsquos CSMACD (more)

Jam Signal make sure all other transmitters are aware of collision 48 bits

Bit time 1 microsec for 10 Mbps Ethernet for K=1023 wait time is about 50 msec

Exponential Backoff Goal adapt

retransmission attempts to estimated current load heavy load random wait will be longer

first collision choose K from 01 delay is K 512 bit transmission times

after second collision choose K from 0123hellip

after ten collisions choose K from 01234hellip1023

Tprop = max prop delay between 2 nodes in LAN

ttrans = time to transmit max-size frame

efficiency goes to 1 as tprop goes to 0

Data Link Layer 5-26

Random Access Protocols

When node has packet to send transmit at full channel data rate R no a priori coordination among nodes

two or more transmitting nodes ldquocollisionrdquo

random access MAC protocol specifies how to detect collisions how to recover from collisions (eg via delayed retransmissions)

Examples of random access MAC protocols slotted ALOHA ALOHA CSMA CSMACD CSMACA

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

human analogy the polite conversationalist

ldquoTaking Turnsrdquo MAC protocolschannel partitioning MAC protocols

share channel efficiently and fairly at high load

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Data Link Layer 5-48

Ethernetrsquos CSMACD (more)

Jam Signal make sure all other transmitters are aware of collision 48 bits

Bit time 1 microsec for 10 Mbps Ethernet for K=1023 wait time is about 50 msec

Exponential Backoff Goal adapt

retransmission attempts to estimated current load heavy load random wait will be longer

first collision choose K from 01 delay is K 512 bit transmission times

Data Link Layer 5-27

Slotted ALOHA

Assumptions all frames same size time divided into equal size slots (time to transmit 1 frame)

nodes start to transmit only slot beginning

nodes are synchronized

if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot all nodes detect collision

Operation when node obtains fresh frame transmits in next slot if no collision node can send new frame in next slot

if collision node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob p until success

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Data Link Layer 5-28

Slotted ALOHA

Pros single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel

highly decentralized only slots in nodes need to be in sync

simple

Cons collisions wasting slots

idle slots nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet

clock synchronization

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

Data Link Layer 5-29

Slotted Aloha efficiency

suppose N nodes with many frames to send each transmits in slot with probability p

prob that given node has success in a slot = p(1-p)N-1

prob that any node has a success = Np(1-p)N-1

max efficiency find p that maximizes Np(1-p)N-1

for many nodes take limit of Np(1-p)N-1

as N goes to infinity gives

Max efficiency = 1e = 37

Efficiency long-run

fraction of successful slots (many nodes all with many frames to send)

At best channelused for useful transmissions 37of time

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

Page 30: Data Link Layer5-1 Chapter 5: The Data Link Layer Our goals:  understand principles behind data link layer services:  error detection, correction  sharing

Data Link Layer 5-30

Pure (unslotted) ALOHA unslotted Aloha simpler no synchronization

when frame first arrives transmit immediately

collision probability increases frame sent at t0 collides with other frames sent in [t0-1t0+1]

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

Data Link Layer 5-47

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Data Link Layer 5-48

Ethernetrsquos CSMACD (more)

Jam Signal make sure all other transmitters are aware of collision 48 bits

Bit time 1 microsec for 10 Mbps Ethernet for K=1023 wait time is about 50 msec

Exponential Backoff Goal adapt

retransmission attempts to estimated current load heavy load random wait will be longer

first collision choose K from 01 delay is K 512 bit transmission times

after second collision choose K from 0123hellip

after ten collisions choose K from 01234hellip1023

Tprop = max prop delay between 2 nodes in LAN

ttrans = time to transmit max-size frame

efficiency goes to 1 as tprop goes to 0

PPP Design Requirements [RFC 1557]

packet framing encapsulation of network-layer datagram in data link frame carry network layer data of any network layer protocol (not just IP) at same time

ability to demultiplex upwards bit transparency must carry any bit pattern in the data field

error detection (no correction) connection liveness detect signal link failure to network layer

Data Link Layer 5-31

Pure Aloha efficiencyP(success by given node) = P(node transmits)

P(no other node transmits in [p0-1p0]

P(no other node transmits in [p0p0+1]

= p (1-p)N-1

(1-p)N-1

= p (1-p)2(N-1)

hellip choosing optimum p and then

letting n -gt infty

= 1(2e) = 18

even worse than slotted Aloha

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

Data Link Layer 5-47

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Data Link Layer 5-48

Ethernetrsquos CSMACD (more)

Jam Signal make sure all other transmitters are aware of collision 48 bits

Bit time 1 microsec for 10 Mbps Ethernet for K=1023 wait time is about 50 msec

Exponential Backoff Goal adapt

retransmission attempts to estimated current load heavy load random wait will be longer

first collision choose K from 01 delay is K 512 bit transmission times

after second collision choose K from 0123hellip

after ten collisions choose K from 01234hellip1023

CSMACD efficiency

Tprop = max prop delay between 2 nodes in LAN

ttrans = time to transmit max-size frame

efficiency goes to 1 as tprop goes to 0

Formula

(Pure ALOHA)

(Slotted ALOHA)

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Catch slotted Aloha needs synchronization of all users a global clock

Data Link Layer 5-35

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

Data Link Layer 5-47

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Data Link Layer 5-48

Ethernetrsquos CSMACD (more)

Jam Signal make sure all other transmitters are aware of collision 48 bits

Bit time 1 microsec for 10 Mbps Ethernet for K=1023 wait time is about 50 msec

Exponential Backoff Goal adapt

retransmission attempts to estimated current load heavy load random wait will be longer

first collision choose K from 01 delay is K 512 bit transmission times

after second collision choose K from 0123hellip

after ten collisions choose K from 01234hellip1023

Data Link Layer 5-49

CSMACD efficiency

Tprop = max prop delay between 2 nodes in LAN

ttrans = time to transmit max-size frame

efficiency goes to 1 as tprop goes to 0

as ttrans goes to infinity

Data Link Layer 5-71

PPP Design Requirements [RFC 1557]

packet framing encapsulation of network-layer datagram in data link frame carry network layer data of any network layer protocol (not just IP) at same time

ability to demultiplex upwards bit transparency must carry any bit pattern in the data field

error detection (no correction) connection liveness detect signal link failure to network layer

Throughput

Aloha Smax=184 Slotted Aloha Smax=368

Aloha vs Slotted Aloha

Maximum throughput for Aloha is 184 while maximum throughput for slotted Aloha is 368 slotted Aloha doubles the throughput of pure aloha

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)

CSMA listen before transmitIf channel sensed idle transmit entire frame

If channel sensed busy defer transmission

human analogy donrsquot interrupt others

Data Link Layer 5-36

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Data Link Layer 5-48

Ethernetrsquos CSMACD (more)

Jam Signal make sure all other transmitters are aware of collision 48 bits

Bit time 1 microsec for 10 Mbps Ethernet for K=1023 wait time is about 50 msec

Exponential Backoff Goal adapt

retransmission attempts to estimated current load heavy load random wait will be longer

first collision choose K from 01 delay is K 512 bit transmission times

after second collision choose K from 0123hellip

after ten collisions choose K from 01234hellip1023

CSMACD efficiency

Tprop = max prop delay between 2 nodes in LAN

ttrans = time to transmit max-size frame

efficiency goes to 1 as tprop goes to 0

as ttrans goes to infinity

CSMA collisions

collisions can still occurpropagation delay means two nodes may not heareach otherrsquos transmissioncollisionentire packet transmission time wasted

spatial layout of nodes

noterole of distance amp propagation delay in determining collision probability

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Data Link Layer 5-48

Ethernetrsquos CSMACD (more)

Jam Signal make sure all other transmitters are aware of collision 48 bits

Bit time 1 microsec for 10 Mbps Ethernet for K=1023 wait time is about 50 msec

Exponential Backoff Goal adapt

retransmission attempts to estimated current load heavy load random wait will be longer

first collision choose K from 01 delay is K 512 bit transmission times

after second collision choose K from 0123hellip

after ten collisions choose K from 01234hellip1023

Non-persistent CSMA

A station senses the channel If the channel is busy it will not continue sensing the channel instead it delays a random period of time repeats the same procedure

If channel is idle it transmits If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time starts all over again

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

Comparison

Data Link Layer 5-41

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Data Link Layer 5-48

Ethernetrsquos CSMACD (more)

Jam Signal make sure all other transmitters are aware of collision 48 bits

Bit time 1 microsec for 10 Mbps Ethernet for K=1023 wait time is about 50 msec

Exponential Backoff Goal adapt

retransmission attempts to estimated current load heavy load random wait will be longer

first collision choose K from 01 delay is K 512 bit transmission times

after second collision choose K from 0123hellip

after ten collisions choose K from 01234hellip1023

CSMACD efficiency

Tprop = max prop delay between 2 nodes in LAN

ttrans = time to transmit max-size frame

efficiency goes to 1 as tprop goes to 0

1-persistent CSMA

A station (a user a transmitter) senses the channel

If the channel is busy it will wait until the channel is idle (sensing all the time)

Whenever it senses the channel is idle it will transmit

If a collision occurs it will delay a random period of time start it all over again

p-persistent CSMA

Observation if you sense idle others too collision is surely to occur

p-persist CSMA applies to slotted channels

A station senses the channel If it senses idle channel it transmits with probability p with probability q=1-p it defers to next slot repeats the same procedure

If it senses busy channel it delays a random number of slots starts all over

PPP Design Requirements [RFC 1557]

packet framing encapsulation of network-layer datagram in data link frame carry network layer data of any network layer protocol (not just IP) at same time

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Ethernetrsquos CSMACD (more)

Jam Signal make sure all other transmitters are aware of collision 48 bits

Bit time 1 microsec for 10 Mbps Ethernet for K=1023 wait time is about 50 msec

Exponential Backoff Goal adapt

retransmission attempts to estimated current load heavy load random wait will be longer

first collision choose K from 01 delay is K 512 bit transmission times

after second collision choose K from 0123hellip

after ten collisions choose K from 01234hellip1023

CSMACD (Collision Detection)CSMACD carrier sensing deferral as in CSMA collisions detected within short time colliding transmissions aborted reducing channel wastage

collision detection easy in wired LANs measure signal strengths compare transmitted received signals

difficult in wireless LANs received signal strength overwhelmed by local transmission strength

Data Link Layer 5-47

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Data Link Layer 5-48

Ethernetrsquos CSMACD (more)

Jam Signal make sure all other transmitters are aware of collision 48 bits

Bit time 1 microsec for 10 Mbps Ethernet for K=1023 wait time is about 50 msec

Exponential Backoff Goal adapt

retransmission attempts to estimated current load heavy load random wait will be longer

first collision choose K from 01 delay is K 512 bit transmission times

after second collision choose K from 0123hellip

after ten collisions choose K from 01234hellip1023

Data Link Layer 5-49

CSMACD efficiency

Tprop = max prop delay between 2 nodes in LAN

ttrans = time to transmit max-size frame

efficiency goes to 1 as tprop goes to 0

as ttrans goes to infinity

Switch link-layer device smarter than hubs take active role store forward Ethernet frames examine incoming framersquos MAC address selectively forward frame to one-or-more outgoing links when frame is to be forwarded on segment uses CSMACD to access segment

transparent hosts are unaware of presence of switches

plug-and-play self-learning switches do not need to be configured

Point to Point Data Link Control one sender one receiver one link easier than broadcast link no Media Access Control no need for explicit MAC addressing eg dialup link ISDN line

popular point-to-point DLC protocols PPP (point-to-point protocol) HDLC High level data link control (Data link used to be considered ldquohigh layerrdquo in protocol stack

Data Link Layer 5-71

PPP Design Requirements [RFC 1557]

packet framing encapsulation of network-layer datagram in data link frame carry network layer data of any network layer protocol (not just IP) at same time

ability to demultiplex upwards bit transparency must carry any bit pattern in the data field

error detection (no correction) connection liveness detect signal link failure to network layer

network layer address negotiation endpoint can learnconfigure each otherrsquos network address

Data Link Layer 5-72

PPP non-requirements

no error correctionrecovery no flow control out of order delivery OK no need to support multipoint links (eg polling)

Error recovery flow control data re-ordering all relegated to higher layers

Data Link Layer 5-73

PPP Data Frame

Flag delimiter (framing) Address does nothing (only one option)

Control does nothing in the future possible multiple control fields

Protocol upper layer protocol to which frame delivered (eg PPP-LCP IP IPCP etc)

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Data Link Layer 5-48

Ethernetrsquos CSMACD (more)

Jam Signal make sure all other transmitters are aware of collision 48 bits

Bit time 1 microsec for 10 Mbps Ethernet for K=1023 wait time is about 50 msec

Exponential Backoff Goal adapt

retransmission attempts to estimated current load heavy load random wait will be longer

first collision choose K from 01 delay is K 512 bit transmission times

after second collision choose K from 0123hellip

after ten collisions choose K from 01234hellip1023

Tprop = max prop delay between 2 nodes in LAN

Ethernet CSMACD algorithm

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

5 After aborting NIC enters exponential backoff after mth collision NIC chooses K at random from 012hellip2m-1 NIC waits K512 bit times returns to Step 2

Data Link Layer 5-48

Ethernetrsquos CSMACD (more)

Jam Signal make sure all other transmitters are aware of collision 48 bits

Bit time 1 microsec for 10 Mbps Ethernet for K=1023 wait time is about 50 msec

Exponential Backoff Goal adapt

retransmission attempts to estimated current load heavy load random wait will be longer

first collision choose K from 01 delay is K 512 bit transmission times

after second collision choose K from 0123hellip

after ten collisions choose K from 01234hellip1023

CSMACD efficiency

Tprop = max prop delay between 2 nodes in LAN

efficiency goes to 1 as tprop goes to 0

1 NIC receives datagram from network layer creates frame

2 If NIC senses channel idle starts frame transmission If NIC senses channel busy waits until channel idle then transmits

3 If NIC transmits entire frame without detecting another transmission NIC is done with frame

4 If NIC detects another transmission while transmitting aborts and sends jam signal

Data Link Layer 5-71

PPP Design Requirements [RFC 1557]

packet framing encapsulation of network-layer datagram in data link frame carry network layer data of any network layer protocol (not just IP) at same time

Switched Ethernet

(a) Hub (b) Switch

Data Link Layer 5-53

Hubshellip physical-layer (ldquodumbrdquo) repeaters

bits coming in one link go out all other links at same rate

all nodes connected to hub can collide with one another

no frame buffering no CSMACD at hub host NICs detect collisions

twisted pair

hub

Data Link Layer 5-54

Switch link-layer device smarter than hubs take active role store forward Ethernet frames examine incoming framersquos MAC address selectively forward frame to one-or-more outgoing links when frame is to be forwarded on segment uses CSMACD to access segment

transparent hosts are unaware of presence of switches

plug-and-play self-learning switches do not need to be configured

Data Link Layer 5-55

Switch allows multiple simultaneous transmissions

hosts have dedicated direct connection to switch

switches buffer packets Ethernet protocol used on each incoming link but no collisions full duplex each link is its own collision domain

Data Link Layer 5-71

PPP Design Requirements [RFC 1557]

packet framing encapsulation of network-layer datagram in data link frame carry network layer data of any network layer protocol (not just IP) at same time

ability to demultiplex upwards bit transparency must carry any bit pattern in the data field

error detection (no correction) connection liveness detect signal link failure to network layer

Error recovery flow control data re-ordering all relegated to higher layers

Data Link Layer 5-73

PPP Design Requirements [RFC 1557]

packet framing encapsulation of network-layer datagram in data link frame carry network layer data of any network layer protocol (not just IP) at same time

ability to demultiplex upwards bit transparency must carry any bit pattern in the data field

error detection (no correction) connection liveness detect signal link failure to network layer

network layer address negotiation endpoint can learnconfigure each otherrsquos network address

Data Link Layer 5-54

Switch link-layer device smarter than hubs take active role store forward Ethernet frames examine incoming framersquos MAC address selectively forward frame to one-or-more outgoing links when frame is to be forwarded on segment uses CSMACD to access segment

transparent hosts are unaware of presence of switches

plug-and-play self-learning switches do not need to be configured

Data Link Layer 5-55

Switch allows multiple simultaneous transmissions

hosts have dedicated direct connection to switch

switches buffer packets Ethernet protocol used on each incoming link but no collisions full duplex each link is its own collision domain

Data Link Layer 5-71

PPP Design Requirements [RFC 1557]

packet framing encapsulation of network-layer datagram in data link frame carry network layer data of any network layer protocol (not just IP) at same time

ability to demultiplex upwards bit transparency must carry any bit pattern in the data field

error detection (no correction) connection liveness detect signal link failure to network layer

network layer address negotiation endpoint can learnconfigure each otherrsquos network address

Data Link Layer 5-72

PPP non-requirements

no error correctionrecovery no flow control out of order delivery OK no need to support multipoint links (eg polling)

Error recovery flow control data re-ordering all relegated to higher layers

Data Link Layer 5-73

Control does nothing in the future possible multiple control fields

VLANs motivation

What happens if CS user moves office to

EE but wants connect to CS switch

single broadcast domain all layer-2 broadcast

traffic (ARP DHCP) crosses entire LAN (securityprivacy efficiency issues)

each lowest level switch has only few ports in use

Point to Point Data Link Control one sender one receiver one link easier than broadcast link no Media Access Control no need for explicit MAC addressing eg dialup link ISDN line

popular point-to-point DLC protocols PPP (point-to-point protocol) HDLC High level data link control (Data link used to be considered ldquohigh layerrdquo in protocol stack

Data Link Layer 5-71

PPP Design Requirements [RFC 1557]

packet framing encapsulation of network-layer datagram in data link frame carry network layer data of any network layer protocol (not just IP) at same time

ability to demultiplex upwards bit transparency must carry any bit pattern in the data field

error detection (no correction) connection liveness detect signal link failure to network layer

network layer address negotiation endpoint can learnconfigure each otherrsquos network address

Data Link Layer 5-72

PPP non-requirements

no error correctionrecovery no flow control out of order delivery OK no need to support multipoint links (eg polling)

Error recovery flow control data re-ordering all relegated to higher layers

Data Link Layer 5-73

PPP Data Frame

Flag delimiter (framing) Address does nothing (only one option)

Control does nothing in the future possible multiple control fields

Protocol upper layer protocol to which frame delivered (eg PPP-LCP IP IPCP etc)

Data Link Layer 5-74

PPP Data Frame

info upper layer data being carried check cyclic redundancy check for error detection

Data Link Layer 5-75

Byte Stuffing ldquodata transparencyrdquo requirement data field must be allowed to include flag pattern lt01111110gt Q is received lt01111110gt data or flag

Sender adds (ldquostuffsrdquo) extra lt 01111101gt escape byte before each lt 01111110gt data byte

Receiver 01111101 before 01111110 discard first byte continue data reception

Data Link Layer 5-71

PPP Design Requirements [RFC 1557]

packet framing encapsulation of network-layer datagram in data link frame carry network layer data of any network layer protocol (not just IP) at same time

ability to demultiplex upwards bit transparency must carry any bit pattern in the data field

error detection (no correction) connection liveness detect signal link failure to network layer

network layer address negotiation endpoint can learnconfigure each otherrsquos network address

Data Link Layer 5-72

PPP non-requirements

no error correctionrecovery no flow control out of order delivery OK no need to support multipoint links (eg polling)

Error recovery flow control data re-ordering all relegated to higher layers

Data Link Layer 5-73
