Abstract
The paper introduces a new protocol for wireless cellular networks by combining a time reservation scheme with a dynamic space reservation scheme. The proposed new protocol, known as the Space and Time Reservation Multiple Access (STRMA) protocol, does not use a fixed reuse pattern but allows a dynamic reservation of bandwidth in both time and space. The performance of this protocol found by simulation is compared with the performance of a cellular network that uses PRMA with a fixed frequency reuse pattern. It is found that for homogenous traffic STRMA offers improved performance over a wide range of traffic loads. For inhomogenous traffic the improvement is even more pronounced.
