| With the propel of “triple play†by the states in recent years, the HINOCtechnology, proposed by our technological workers, has undergone a rapiddevelopment and entered the prototype testing phase, because of its advantages of highaccess speed, QoS support and good compatibility with the old television network.This article developed the MAC layer software for the prototype in two steps.Firstly, we programmed simplified software and do a performance testing in fixedmode，based on the study of basic principles of HINOC and interfaces between thevarious parts of the prototype. Secondly, we improved the simplified program to meetthe HINOC specification and gave detailed instructions of the procedure of designingand implementation. We tested the throughput and delay of the prototype, got theresults which should be similar with being deployed in real environment. |
