Summary
In fixed assignment access protocols, the minimum delay increases in direct proportion to the number of users, regardless of whether these users are transmitting or not. Thus, more users can share a given channel bandwidth in such schemes provided all users are willing to tolerate greater delay. A key characteristic of polling protocols is the reliability in providing channel access. Such protocols are attractive for short-range wireless networks with a small number of users that generate stable and predictable traffic patterns.
