Abstract

This paper studies communication channel assignment in IEEE 802.15.3 WPANs. We clarify the channel interference problems as well as introduce an interesting channel interference caused by a hidden PNC in IEEE 802.15.3 WPANs. In this paper, we propose a predictive channel assignment method (PCAM) to efficiently avoid the channel interference among piconets and to minimize throughput degradation by channel interference. The basic idea of the proposed method is to synchronize the communication channel time among the piconets residing in the channel interference area, to predict the future channel interference time and to make a schedule of the communication channel time to minimize throughput degradation. The obtained results show that the proposed PCAM highly improves the system throughput by avoiding channel interference compared to the existing method of IEEE 802.15.3 WPANs.
