Table 2 Parameters for deriving CRs for ASO-TDMA

From: ASO-TDMA: ad-hoc self-organizing TDMA protocol for shipborne ad-hoc networks

Parameters

Description

ii

The index of ships located in hop k

n k

The number of ships in hop k

n s ii

The number of NSs for ship ii

x

The number of sub-frames for ship ii

X k

The set of sub-frame indices for ship ii, (X k = {…,k − 3,k,k + 3,…})

kk

The element of X k , (kk∈X k )

N kk

The number of time slots in sub-frame kk

jj

The index of non-NSs of ship ii in hop k, (1 ≤ jj ≤ n k − n s ii )

C R A(ii)(kk)(k)

The CR for ASO-TDMA for ship ii in hop k for sub-frame kk
