Abstract With HiperLAN/2 (H/2), the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) designed a high bit rate wireless communications system for the 5 GHz frequency band. Beside infrastructure based networking, H/2 provides the concept of a one hop ad hoc network topology, called Home Extension, whereby each single subnet is centrally coordinated. The objective of a novel forwarding technique in the frequency domain was to overcome the restrictions of the one hop ad hoc configuration and to extend it to multihop connectivity. Although simulations showed convincing results for throughput and delay characteristics, all potentialities of gaining performance have to be taken into account to fully support Quality of Service. This paper describes an improved concept of H/2 MAC Scheduling specifically adapted to the requirements of inter-subnet communication as well as the benefits reached by coordination and synchronization of forwarders.
