Abstract
In this paper a wireless ad hoc multihop network is described. The decentrally organized network is able to guarantee the bandwidth contracted to a connection in a hidden station environment by means of contention-free data transmission on real channel connections (RCCs) that are established and used for the duration when data have to be transmitted, and that are released otherwise. Protocols for the air interface of the proposed network that have been developed to support real-time oriented services with quality of service and that support the prioritized, quick re-establishment of real channel connections are described. The proposed algorithms efficiently exploits the available frequency spectrum and protects established links in a hidden and exposed station environment. Performance results for the ad hoc network with different connectivities are presented and indicate low delay and high utilization even for multihop operation.
