Abstract:ALOHA with priority acknowledgments (ACK) is transformed into a collision-free channel access method by increasing the amount of working memory capacity with which communicating nodes remember each node that has requested to join the channel successfully. This results in ALOHA-NUI, for neighborhood understood index. The throughput of ALOHA-NUI is compared with the throughput of TDMA with a fixed transmission schedule, ALOHA with priority ACK's, and CSMA with priority ACK's analytically and by simulation. ALOHA… Show more
