Carrier class software

Software for point-to-point (P2P) equipment

Point-to-Point broadband access equipment software (KDF software) is designed for use in 802.11 wireless routers for coordinated access to the environment and collision-free transmission of data by network nodes.

The KDF software is intended for use as part of the KODOFON radio access equipment and is its inherent part.

Basic functional characteristics:

The KDF software solves problems inherent in systems using the DCF (Distributed Coordination Function) channel access protocol with the CSMA/CA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access With Collision Avoidance) competitive access algorithm, in particular:

• Reduce the number of collisions that decrease the total available bandwidth, which inevitably arise when increasing the number of simultaneously interacting stations and traffic in the communication network,
• Provide the required limited latency for real-time traffic and throughput for heavy network traffic,
• If necessary, prioritize downlink or uplink streams by redistributing the transmission time between these streams,
• Eliminate the problem of a hidden node.
