This paper presents a modular architecture for the
design, implementation and performance evaluation of protocol
stacks. The architecture allows a high degree of flexibility through
composing complex behavior of a communication system using
so-called Functional Units (FUs). The composition of Functional
Units (FUs) to form a Functional Unit Network (FUN) is
achieved by offering a generic management interface. We tackle
the issue of protocol development for communication systems
from the perspective of software design and -engineering. The
requirements and the resulting interfaces for the Functional Units
(FUs) are the main focus of this article. The proposed architecture
is presented in the context of a reference model for multi-mode
protocol stacks developed in the European Union-funded research
project WINNER. An exemplary implementation of the set of
Data Link Layer functions as they are currently envisaged in
WINNER and an implementation of an IEEE 802.16 (WiMAX)
Data Link Layer (DLL) for performance evaluation is presented
as a proof of concept.
