Adaptive random access algorithm with improved delay performance

Abstract We propose an adaptive random access algorithm for mobile environments with capture. The algorithm has a dynamic window size which is updated according to the traffic intensity. The packet arrival rate is tracked by employing sequential detection procedures. Simulations indicate that reducing the window size adaptively under heavy load conditions improves the average delay significantly. Copyright © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
