Description / Abstract:
Introduction
The MDLP state transition tables are two dimensional matrices
that define all possible states (as columns) and events (as rows)
that can occur within MDLP. Each element of the matrix enumerates
the action(s) to be taken when the specified event occurs in a
particular state. A state transition table has been defined for the
Data Link Layer Entity (DLLE), the Sleep Management Entity (SME),
and the TEI Management Entity (TME).
Since MDLP is an asymmetric protocol, the behavior and
procedures for user side CDPD devices differ from those used by
network side CDPD devices. Thus, there are two sets of state
transition tables defined: one set for the network side procedures
and one set for the user side procedures.
