which defines two different channel access mechanisms
i. e. distributed coordination function( DCF) and point coordination function( PCF). Specifically
DCF works based on the mechanism of competition
which may lead to collision and uncontrollable delay for the acquisition data by station connected with sensors while transmitting in channel.Nevertheless
PCF works as a non-competitive access mechanism using round enquiry way
which can control the delay efficiently. Aiming at this case
utilize centralized control protocol to achieve PCF access mechanism
structure of superframe is defined in the protocol and each superframe is divided into a plurality of time slots
so as to realize non-competitive channel access mechanism. Experimental results show that the maximum access delay is controlled within 90 ms.
