Abstract

Ultra-wideband (UWB) technology has emerged as a solution for the wireless interface between medical sensors and personal servers in future telemedicine systems. The WiMedia Alliance has specified a distributed medium access control protocol based on UWB for high-rate WPANs. In the cases of some applications, data traffic between the source device and destination device is transmitted via one or more intermediate links before it reaches the destination device. However, when all data frames do not transmit in the current DRP reservation block, a relay device cannot transmit the received data frame from the source device in the current DRP policy, until the next DRP duration reserved for forwarding to the destination device begins. This policy increases end-to-end latency between the source device and destination device significantly. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a novel reservation-based routing protocol to minimize the end-to-end delay between source and destination. The proposed routing protocol utilizes the number of medium access slots and hop-count to decide the optimal route between the source device and destination device. The simulation results show that the proposed protocol can enhance the throughput and delay performance and improve energy efficiency by minimizing the packet drop and collision.
