Capacity of time-slotted ALOHA packetized multiple-access systems over the AWGN channel.

Capacity of time-slotted ALOHA packetized multiple-access systems over the AWGN channel.

We study different notions of capacity for time-slotted ALOHA systems. In these systems, multiple users synchronously send packets in a bursty manner over a common additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel. The users do not coordinate their transmissions, which may collide at the receiver. For su...
