  • Abstract
    We first describe the draft multiple/random access protocol for IEEE 802.14 over the cable TV/hybrid fiber coaxial (CATV/HFC) networks. To best fit this draft protocol into the target network, we propose a dynamic control scheme to adequately adjust the parameters. Simulations of the draft protocol are then presented to depict the effectiveness of the proposed scheme and further highlight the directions for the design of MAC protocols over the CATV/HFC networks.
