    Modeling beacon period length of the UWB and 60-GHz mmWave WPANs based on ECMA-368 and ECMA-387 standards

    Abstract
    To evaluate the performance of the distributed medium access control layer of the emerging ultrawideband and 60-GHz millimeter wave (mmWave) wireless personal area networks based on ECMA-368 and ECMA-387 standards, the first step is to determine the beacon period length (BPL) of the superframe in a given network. In this paper, we provide an analytical model for the probability mass function (PMF) of the BPL as a function of the network dimensions, number of beaconing devices, antenna beamwidth, and the transmission range of the devices. To enable devices with steerable directional antennas in the ECMA-387 standard to have simultaneous communications with neighbors in their different antenna...

    Abstract
    A probabilistic method is developed here to model the beacon period length (BPL) defined in the ECMA-368 and ECMA-387 standards for the distributed reservation protocol. The model computes the probability mass function (PMF) of the BPL in a superframe which will be used in modeling of throughput, delay, fairness, power and other major distributed medium access control layer parameters of the emerging ultra wideband and 60- GHz millimeter wave wireless personal area networks. The model relates the PMF of the BPL to the network density, antenna beamwidth, and the transmission range of the devices assuming that the devices are distributed in an outdoor environment based on Two-dimensional...
