A protocol for random multiple access of packets with mixed priorities in wireless networks.

A protocol for random multiple access of packets with mixed priorities in wireless networks.

Random multiple access (RMA) protocols comprise an important class for the accessing/signaling stage in multimedia ATM wireless networks. Within the RMA class, the ALOHA algorithm is most widely used at this point in time, while, as is well known, the latter algorithm becomes unstable, as the user p...
