The capacity of wireless networks is fundamentally limited by interference. However, little research has focused on the interference correlation, which may greatly increase the local delay (namely the number of time slots required for a…
In wireless networks, where each node transmits independently of other nodes in the network (the ALOHA protocol), the expected delay experienced by a packet until it is successfully received at any other node is known to be infinite for…
We consider a multi-channel communication system under ALOHA and CSMA protocols, resepctively, in continuous time. We derive probabilistic formulas for the most important quantities: the numbers of sending attempts and the number of…
