The static time division multiplexed access (TDMA) strategy used by Link16 can be implemented easily, but it can not support to enter or quit the network freely, and the static allocation of time slots has a seriously influence on the network throughput. A new dynamic time slot division allocation strategy without centric control node is proposed in this paper, and then we apply it in Link16 model for simulation test. The conclusions show that it improves the network throughput remarkably when network participating nodes have unbalanced demand of time slots.
