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

Parameters

Description

n i

l

The index of NTSs (CPs) assigned by ship i, (1 ≤ l ≤ n i )

n s i

The number of NSs for ship i

j

The index of non-NSs for ship i, (1 ≤ j ≤ N − n i )

n j

The number of NTSs assigned by ship j

q

The index of NSs for ship j, (1 ≤ q ≤ n j )

n q

The number of NTSs assigned by ship q

N Sf

The number of time slots in a frame for SO-TDMA

N Cf

The number of time slots in a frame for CS-TDMA

C R S(i)(l)

The CR for SO-TDMA for ship i at NTS l

C R S(i)(l)

The CR for CS-TDMA for ship i at CP l
