A dynamic TDMA wireless integrated voice/data system with data steal into voice (DSV) technique

This paper deals with a method of integration of voice/data in wireless communication systems. By applying the DSV (data steal into voice) technique to D-TDMA (dynamic time division multiple access) systems, this paper proposes an MAC (media access control) method of integration of voice/data for the systems such as cellular radios and cordless phones. After a brief review of the D-TDMA scheme and the DSV technique, the protocol called D-TDMA/DSV is described. Then, a static analysis used to derive the channel capacity and a dynamic analysis for evaluating the throughput and delay performance are presented. An extension of TFA (transient fluid approximation) analysis is employed in the dynamic analysis. With the same system parameters, the capacity of D-TDMA/DSV is compared with that of the traditional D-TDMA. Under the limitation of the blocking probability required for cellular radios, some numerical examples of dynamic analysis are given to show the throughput and delay performance of the system.
