January 2024 DCN 15-24-0044-01-0000 Contents Background Methodology Conclusion Slide 3 Yeong Min Jang Submission
January 2024 DCN 15-24-0044-01-0000 Background Challenges of Bidirectional OCC: Limited field of view and hidden node problem High computational demands for real-time processing Security concerns with visible light transmissions Current MAC Mechanisms: Need for efficient collision avoidance and hidden node mitigation Slide 4 Yeong Min Jang Submission
January 2024 DCN 15-24-0044-01-0000 Methodology: 1. New MAC Protocol for OCC (CSMA with collision detection and hidden avoidance; CSMA/CD-HA) CSMA/CD-HA protocol: This protocol addresses the hidden node problem and ensures fair access to the channel. Intra-frame bidirectional transmission: Data is exchanged within the same frame, allowing for faster and more efficient communication. Directional communication: Devices can focus their light beams on specific receivers, improving efficiency and reducing interference. Adaptive backoff mechanism: This mechanism helps to avoid collisions and further improves channel utilization. Increasing the backoff time after a collision: This gives other devices more time to access the channel. Adapting the backoff time based on channel conditions: In congested networks, backoff times are increased to avoid further collisions. Slide 5 Yeong Min Jang Submission
January 2024 DCN 15-24-0044-01-0000 Methodology: Comparison between the CSMA/CD-HA and the current MAC standardization CSMA/CA Feature CSMA/CD-HA CSMA/CA Collision Handling Detection and Hidden Area Avoidance Avoidance through carrier sensing and backoff Hardware Complexity Higher Lower Latency Higher Lower High reliability, collision avoidance Low latency, tolerable collisions Suitability Slide 6 Yeong Min Jang Submission
January 2024 DCN 15-24-0044-01-0000 Methodology: 2. PRU-Based Architecture Programmable Realtime Unit (PRU) Integration: Offloads real-time OCC tasks from the main processor for improved performance and reduced latency. Functions Handled by PRU: Real-time signal processing Modulation and demodulation Collision detection and hidden node identification Packet scheduling and transmission Shared Memory Communication: Enables efficient data exchange between the PRU and the main processor.

January 2024 DCN 15-24-0044-01-0000 Methodology (OCC MAC and Network Layer for Bidirectional communications) Conduct a controlled experiment to validate the OCC prototype's performance. Slide 8 Yeong Min Jang Submission
January 2024 DCN 15-24-0044-01-0000 Conclusion The CSMA/CD-HA protocol enhances efficiency by detecting hidden nodes and employing directional communication, while adaptive backoff dynamically adjusts transmission attempts. PRU integration offloads real-time tasks, optimizing performance. Improved reliability is ensured through collision detection, hidden area avoidance, and intra-frame bidirectional transmission. The system's greater scalability is facilitated by a flexible protocol design and shared memory communication, accommodating diverse network configurations and fostering wider adoption.
