In this paper, we propose a novel channel-aware latency taming scheme, called Optimal Transmission Latency Taming (OTLT), to detect hidden channel state and tame the distribution tail of the packet sojourn time in Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) devices. Specifically, we design a forward algorithm based on a hidden semi-Markov model to detect the hidden channel state, with a particular emphasis on the state sojourn duration, and to calculate the corresponding channel access probability. Then we develop a time-sensitive model to investigate the minimum sojourn time a packet spends in the IIoT device before leaving successfully. With the obtained channel access probability, the first passage probability of the proposed model is explored to find the maximum probability of a packet being successfully transmitted in a given back-off sojourn duration (BSD). The distribution tail of the packet sojourn time can be tamed by minimizing the cumulative summation of each BSD in consideration of the quadratic penalty latency constraints. Simulation results demonstrate that, in the industrial environment, the OTLT scheme can keep the packet’s sojourn duration within a quantifiable limit and variance. It can also obtain considerably efficient control over packet transmission latency in a time-varying wireless propagation channel even with the increasing number of IIoT devices.
