Abstract
• STAs with a group may be allowed to contend for the medium – idea of group synchronized DCF (GS-DCF)
• Medium access window allowed to certain groups and prohibited to other groups
- AP decides on defining the medium access start and end times
• Performance comparison of GS-DCF with DCF

Group Medium Access in Beacon Frame
Slide 3
March 2012
• AP informed of Supported Rates, QoS Capability, QoS Traffic Capability, and Power Capability in Association Request frame from STAs
• AP clusters STAs into groups and informs the group IDs in Association Response frame
• Beacon frame defines the medium access time for each group

Proposed Information Element
Slide 4
March 2012
• Propose to add an Information Element termed as Group Access Parameter Set (GAPS) element in the Beacon frame
• GAPS element for group ‘n’ shall comprise of:
(i) GID: Group Identification
(ii) Group Access Start Time: Value of T_n
(iii) Group Interval End Time: End time of medium access

Medium Access of STA Groups
Slide 5
March 2012
• Group i’s medium access Start Time is decided by the AP
• Start Time based on number of associated / active STAs per group and priority setting per group
• Group Interval End Time for i-th group is identical to prohibition time for (i+1)-th group
Group 1 Interval Group 2 Interval Group 3 Interval Group 4 Interval Group 5 Interval
T_1 = 0 T_2 T_3 T_4 T_5 T_6

Overlapping Medium Access Times among STA Groups
Slide 6
March 2012
• Overlapping medium access times for efficient medium contention, e.g., Groups 4 and 3 medium access
• Overlapping medium access reduced idle medium time
Group 5 IntervalGroup 2 Interval Group 1 Interval
Group 4 Interval
Group 3 Interval
T_5 = 0 T_2 T_1 T_4 T_3 T_5

GS-DCF Medium Access
Slide 7
March 2012
• Beacon frame consists of information on all group synchronized medium access periods until next beacon
• Time not assigned to groups is assigned for regular DCF

Summary
• GAPS element proposed to be included in the Beacon frame
• Only limited number of groups are allowed to contend during specified medium access window defined in the GAPS element
• GS-DCF outperforms DCF with increasing number of STAs contending for the channel
