adamdunkels 952dfc9384 Rework of the CSMA layer: instead of using one timer per packet, the module now uses one central timer and a queue of outgoing packets. This helps to keep packets in order, which is extremely useful for TCP transfers, and reduces the amount of congestion since consecutive packets now are spaced in time if there is a collision. Based on the observations and ideas of Simon Duquennoy. 2010-12-14 07:57:14 +00:00
adamdunkels af21afa750 Make sure that the cycle timing is exact 2010-12-10 13:36:06 +00:00
adamdunkels c19a967973 Bugfix: with the recent bugfixes, it was no longer possible to turn duty cycling back on after it had been turned off 2010-12-07 23:12:54 +00:00
adamdunkels 4c9793f428 Let ContikiMAC remember the state that the radio should have when duty cycling is turned off. This fixes a bug in which the radio was turned on after sending, even when NETSTACK_RDC.off(0) was enabled. 2010-12-06 09:08:22 +00:00
dak664 e54d7d6f9c Fix compiler warnings 2010-12-02 15:55:17 +00:00
adamdunkels 6d556d5c13 Fixed bug with link-layer ACKs. Refactored the ACK reception code. 2010-11-25 08:44:34 +00:00
nifi 3bd78893e5 Renamed nullrdc to nullrdc-noframer and nullrdc-framer to nullrdc.
nullrdc (previously nullrdc-framer) is now a RDC implementation that
does not do any radio duty cycling but supports link layer addresses
and frame format via framer (for example 802.15.4). nullrdc can now be
used in the same way as contikimac, xmac, etc.

nullrdc-noframer (previously nullrdc) is a null RDC implementation
that does not do any radio duty cycling, does not add any header of its
own to the packets, and does not support link layer addresses.

adamdunkels b7df18a96a Turned off streaming by default to save code space; made guard time a little more conservative 2010-11-02 11:00:08 +00:00
adamdunkels 8fa7bf6c31 Always restore the queuebuf to the packetbuf before calling the upper layers. Reduce the waiting time between successive MAC layer retransmissions. 2010-10-24 21:07:00 +00:00
adamdunkels 73f5535754 Made the guard time slightly more conservative - found an occasion where this was needed 2010-10-24 21:06:17 +00:00
adamdunkels 9cb830ed37 Timing bugfix in the waiting period between channel samples to check if the coast is clear before sending a packet. 2010-10-20 22:25:24 +00:00
adamdunkels 3ffcff0656 Added mechanisms for explicit de-synchronization of synchronized neighbors. Added link-layer ACKs. Fixed bugs with MAC-layer interaction. Now seems to work somewhat (didn't work at all before, in some cases), but there are still problems with packet loss. 2010-10-20 15:23:43 +00:00
nifi e2b4956a7f Bug fix: release the packet and notify the sender if RDC returned an error 2010-10-14 19:08:39 +00:00
joxe 4f3fc1c404 fixed xmac to use new channel check define name 2010-10-03 22:46:53 +00:00
adamdunkels ceebd7020a Bugfix: the return value sometimes was wrong when a collision was detected. 2010-10-03 20:39:24 +00:00
adamdunkels ae88ed04f1 Moved the definition of the channel check rate used by the radio duty
cycling layer. This definition was previously held in net/mac/mac.h,
with the name MAC_CONF_CHANNEL_CHECK_RATE. But since the rate is used
by the radio duty cycling layer, it makes more sense to change its
name to reflect this. Also, the configuration option should be tied to
the netstack configuration instead.

So the new configuration option is called
NETSTACK_CONF_RDC_CHANNEL_CHECK_RATE.

adamdunkels eb58968459 Added a timer to each phase structure that keeps track of for how long
a particular receiver has not ACKed packets. After some time
(currently 16 seconds), the sender will begin sending full strobe
periods again.

adamdunkels 62039a530d Removed non-existant cooja-debug.h include 2010-04-04 12:31:47 +00:00
adamdunkels 7d6ff0289e Fiddled more with the timing: the phase seems stable now at least. Still bugs left though... 2010-04-04 12:28:29 +00:00
adamdunkels be117afe04 After a lot of tweaking and twiddling with the timing of the ContikiMAC code and the mechanisms in the CC2420 driver, things seem to work somewhat stable now - knock on wood! 2010-04-04 07:49:30 +00:00
adamdunkels 121ca946e1 Improved phase lock behaviour when neighbor is not duty cycling: senders notify receivers via the 802.15.4 pending bit that they are not duty cycling. Neighbors then will start sending packets immediately and not wait for neighbors' phase. Tweaking of ContikiMAC timers to make it more reliable. 2010-04-03 13:28:30 +00:00
