Design of reservation mechanism based on the slotted ring network
The traditional slotted ring network is one of the high speed networks, however its transmission delay in heavy network load is too long. We propose a reservation mechanism to improve this drawback. The mechanism is particularly useful in the heavy network load to get a lower delay for high priority packet transmission. We compare it with a traditional slotted ring network by using simulations, and the results show that this mechanism provides the lower delay when the network traffic load is heavy.
