Randomized exponential backoff is a widely deployed technique for coordinating access to a shared resource. A good backoff protocol should, arguably, satisfy three natural properties: (i) it should provide constant throughput, wasting as…

Binary exponential backoff (BEB) is a decades-old algorithm for coordinating access to a shared channel. In modern networks, BEB plays an important role in WiFi (IEEE 802.11) and other wireless communication standards. Despite this track…

Randomized binary exponential backoff (BEB) is a popular algorithm for coordinating access to a shared channel. With an operational history exceeding four decades, BEB is currently an important component of several wireless standards.…

Randomized backoff protocols, such as exponential backoff, are a powerful tool for managing access to a shared resource, often a wireless communication channel (e.g., [1]). For a wireless device to transmit successfully, it uses a backoff…

Random access (RA) schemes are a topic of high interest in machine-type communication (MTC). In RA protocols, backoff techniques such as exponential backoff (EB) are used to stabilize the system to avoid low throughput and excessive delays.…

Recently several authors have proposed stochastic evolutionary models for the growth of complex networks that give rise to power-law distributions. These models are based on the notion of preferential attachment leading to the ``rich get…

The exponential growth of wireless devices and stringent reliability requirements of emerging applications demand fundamental improvements in distributed channel access mechanisms for unlicensed bands. Current Wi-Fi systems, which rely on…

Wireless devices need to adapt their transmission power according to the fluctuating wireless channel in order to meet constraints of delay sensitive applications. In this paper, we consider delay sensitivity in the form of strict packet…

In general, obtaining the exact steady-state distribution of queue lengths is not feasible. Therefore, we establish bounds for the tail probabilities of queue lengths. Specifically, we examine queueing systems under Heavy-Traffic (HT)…

The IEEE 802.11 backoff algorithm is very important for controlling system throughput over contentionbased wireless networks. For this reason, there are many studies on wireless network performance focus on developing backoff algorithms.…

Throughput improvement of the Wireless LANs has been a constant area of research. Most of the work in this area, focuses on designing throughput optimal schemes for fully connected networks (no hidden nodes). But, we demonstrate that the…

This paper discovers fundamental principles of the backoff process that governs the performance of IEEE 802.11. A simplistic principle founded upon regular variation theory is that the backoff time has a truncated Pareto-type tail…

Edge intelligence (EI) allows resource-constrained edge devices (EDs) to offload computation-intensive AI tasks (e.g., visual object detection) to edge servers (ESs) for fast execution. However, transmitting high-volume raw task data (e.g.,…

This paper deals with the delay-throughput analysis of a single-hop wireless network with $n$ transmitter/receiver pairs. All channels are assumed to be block Rayleigh fading with shadowing, described by parameters $(\alpha,\varpi)$, where…

This paper is motivated by the observation that the average queueing delay can be decreased by sacrificing power efficiency in wireless communications. In this sense, we naturally wonder what is the minimum queueing delay when the available…

Collisions are a main cause of throughput degradation in WLANs. The current contention mechanism used in IEEE 802.11 networks is called Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA). It uses a Binary Exponential Backoff…

This paper studies the performance of Non-persistent CSMA/CA protocols with K-Exponential Backoff scheduling algorithms. A multi-queue single-server system is proposed to model multiple access networks. The input buffer of each access node…

For general multi-hop queueing networks, delay optimal network control has unfortunately been an outstanding problem. The dynamic backpressure (BP) algorithm elegantly achieves throughput optimality, but does not yield good delay…

While mobile edge computing (MEC) alleviates the computation and power limitations of mobile devices, additional latency is incurred when offloading tasks to remote MEC servers. In this work, the power-delay tradeoff in the context of task…
