Analysis of multi-channel slotted multi-access protocols
Ioannis E. Pountourakis, E.D. Sykas, E.N. Protonotarios · 2003
The authors describe and analyze multiaccess protocols in a multichannel system using several parallel broadcast radio channels. Two specific cases are described: sequential hunting terminal channel and random choice. A Markovian model is formulated, and the protocol performance is evaluated. Numerical results are presented and compared with the single-channel system.>
