USAP:Unifying Slot Assignment Protocol Statistics Analysis with MANET Routing Protocol

The Unifying Slot Assignment Protocol (USAP) is a multiple-access protocol, widely used in military packet radio net-works such as the Soldier Phone. It is basically a TDMA based MAC protocol which is capable to efficiently utilize multiple channels. USAP is a distributed TDMA slot assignment protocol for mobile multi-hop broadcast packet radio networks and its ability to tie to-gether diverse higher layer protocol, therefore, called unifying slot assignment protocol. This paper mainly muse the concert simulation based investigation of USAP under with the consideration of routing protocol in random waypoint scenario with highly integrated statistics like different types of slot including boot straps slot, broadcast slot and unicast data packet fragmentation and reassembly etc.
