Abstract
In this paper, the Frame Descriptor Table (FDT) concept,
invented to enable MAC protocols applying a frame based
reservation strategy to cope with the requirements of 4G
mobile radio networks, is evaluated concerning its efficiency
in Relay Enhanced Cell (REC) scenarios. MAC protocols for
4G mobile radio networks, also known as IMT-Advanced
systems, will operate on high data rate channels resulting in
short packet transmission duration. With the help of the FDT
concept the resulting increased overhead can be reduced and
thus the MAC protocol is able to work in a highly efficient
way. To improve the multi-hop communication applied in
mobile radio systems with RECs the minimization of
overhead is of particular importance. Based on analytical
calculations in this paper it is shown that FDTs are very well
suited to minimize the overhead in RECs and therefore are a
means to enable MAC protocols meeting the demands
expected from 4G mobile radio networks.
