| 65 | many Subscriber Stations '''(SS)''' forming a Star Topology. The BS broadcasts downlink and uplink maps periodically which tells a SS when would be |
| 66 | its turn to send and receive data, as is done in 802.16 or Wimax. For the first implementation we have assumed the system to be in equilbrium |
| 67 | i.e. no new SS`s are added to the system. Their is no notion of an ACK here and no contention issues. |

| 82 | This behavioral description of both BS and SS can be transformed to state-machines, which in turn can be transformed to C-code. A few typical |
| 83 | transitions through states are numbered. For the Base Station, we have the following states: |

| 93 | 1) '''Process Map''' : The BS decides the allocation of slots for the uplink and the downlink to the various SS. Each slot consists of the number |
| 94 | of burst units allowed. For our TDM system we have assumed a equal slots for all the subscribers. Also, new Connection ID`s are allocated during |
| 95 | this stage. |
| 96 | |
| 97 | 2) '''Send Map''' : The Base Station broadcasts the map created in the above stage, using a special '''Connection ID''' 0, meant for all the |
| 98 | Subscriber nodes already in the system. |
| 99 | |
| 100 | 3)'''DL Burst''' : The BS emits on the DownLink as specified by Map transmitted in the previous stage. To distinguish between each of the SS |
| 101 | it uses a Connection ID, which corresponds to its own queues. This can be heard by all the nodes and they too distinguish it by their |
| 102 | Connection ID. |
| 103 | |
| 104 | 4) '''Contention Time''' : This stage is for future reserve. Any new SS wishing to join the system and already synchronized with BS would send in a Request |
| 105 | during this stage. For the time being we make the BS and the SS sleep during this period. |
| 106 | |
| 107 | 5) '''UL Burst''' : The BS receives on the UpLink as specified by Map transmitted in the previous stage. Again it distinguishes between various SS`s |
| 108 | by the use of Connection ID. |
| 109 | |
| 110 | 6) '''Map Sending''' : If the BS does not receive from any SS for a long time, it enters this special stage. After coming to this state, the BS |
| 111 | emits MAPS Periodically and simply waits for the rest of the frame. |
