An access protocol for speech/data/video integration in TDMA-based advanced mobile systems

One key requirement in the radio access design of advanced, third-generation mobile systems is the. ability to accommodate a variety of service types via flexible and efficient multiple-access protocols. This paper introduces a multiple-access protocol, SIR++ (service integration for radio access), which has the potential for meeting the service requirements of speech, video, and bursty data traffic in an efficient way, SIR++ is evolved from and generalizes a former protocol, SIR, which only considered the requirements of speech and data, The paper also evaluates the buffer occupancy distribution associated with an (H.253) video connection by solving a worst case model of the system.
