Random Medium-Access-Control (MAC) algorithms have played an increasingly important role in the development of wired and wireless Local Area Networks (LANs) and yet the performanc...

We study the contention/interaction among wireless nodes and med -ium access control design in game theory framework. We define a general class of games, called random access game...
— Multiuser diversity refers to a type of diversity present across different users in a fading environment. This diversity can be exploited by scheduling transmissions so that us...
This paper analyzes the spectral efficiency as a function of medium access control (MAC) for large random spreading CDMA random access systems that employ a linear receiver. It is ...
Abstract—Traditionally, random access protocols have been designed and studied by assuming simple models for the physical layer. We introduce a reception model that incorporates ...
