Abstract :
The paper addresses the way in which information transfer can be achieved in broadband indoor radio LANs using the asynchronous transfer mode (ATM). A multi-access protocol for ATM-based access is described which uses a request/permit mechanism to control access to the shared medium. This protocol approximates a global FIFO strategy. It has been defined for a passive optical network in the RACE project R2024 Broadband Access Facilities, and is currently being implemented in the demonstrator of this project
