The thesis is dedicated to studying methods to improve the efficiency of random access schemes and to facilitate their deployment in machine-type communications (MTC). First, a joint user activity identification and channel estimation…

In this paper we investigate the effect of spatial coupling applied to the recently-proposed coded slotted ALOHA (CSA) random access protocol. Thanks to the bridge between the graphical model describing the iterative interference…

A cross-layer scheme, namely ALOHA With Collision Resolution (ALOHA-CR), is proposed for high throughput wireless communications in a cellular scenario. Transmissions occur in a time-slotted ALOHA-type fashion but with an important…

We consider ALOHA and slotted ALOHA protocols as medium access rules for a multi-channel message delivery system. Users decide randomly and independently with a minimal amount of knowledge about the system at random times to make a message…

Slotted Aloha has been widely adopted in various communication networks. Yet if the transmission probabilities and traffic input rates of transmitters are not properly regulated, their data queues may easily become unstable. For stability…

In this work we consider a two-user and a three-user slotted ALOHA network with multi-packet reception (MPR) capabilities. The nodes can adapt their transmission probabilities and their transmission parameters based on the status of the…

We propose an irregular repetition slotted ALOHA (IRSA) based random-access protocol for the binary adder channel (BAC). The BAC captures important physical-layer concepts, such as packet generation, per-slot decoding, and information rate,…

The advent of Machine-to-Machine communication has sparked a new wave of interest to random access protocols, especially in application to LTE Random Access (RA). By analogy with classical slotted ALOHA, state-of-the-art models LTE RA as a…

Multi-replicA decoding using corRelation baSed LocALisAtion (MARSALA) is a recent random access technique designed for satellite return links. It follows the multiple transmission and interference cancellation scheme of Contention…

We study medium access in FMCW radar networks. We assume that all the radars use same parameters, e.g., chirp duration, chirp slope, cutoff frequency, number of chirps per packet, etc, and propose and analyze slotted ALOHA and CSMA…

Associated with multi-packet reception at the access point, irregular repetition slotted ALOHA (IRSA) holds a great potential in improving the access capacity of massive machine type communication systems. Considering the time-frequency…

We present a stochastic geometry-based model to investigate alternative medium access choices for LoRaWAN---a widely adopted low-power wide-area networking (LPWAN) technology for the Internet-of-things (IoT). LoRaWAN adoption is driven by…

Random Access MAC protocols are simple and effective when the nature of the traffic is unpredictable and sporadic. In the following paper, investigations on the new Enhanced Contention Resolution ALOHA (ECRA) are presented, where some new…

This paper studies the buffered Aloha with K-exponential backoff collision resolution algorithms. The buffered Aloha network is modeled as a multi-queue single-server system. We adopt a widely used approach in packet switching systems to…

Irregular repetition slotted aloha (IRSA) is a massive random access protocol which can be used to serve a large number of users while achieving a packet loss rate (PLR) close to zero. However, if the number of users is too high, then the…

An interference management problem among multiple overlapped random access networks (RANs) is investigated, each of which operates with slotted ALOHA protocol. Assuming that access points and users have multiple antennas, a novel…

Irregular repetition slotted aloha (IRSA) is a massive random access protocol in which users transmit several replicas of their packet over a frame to a base station. Existing studies have analyzed IRSA in the single-cell (SC) setup, which…

In this paper, we investigate the random access problem for a delay-constrained heterogeneous wireless network. As a first attempt to study this new problem, we consider a network with two users who deliver delay-constrained traffic to an…

We evaluate a modification of irregular repetition slotted ALOHA (IRSA) involving intermediate decoding and early transmission termination by some nodes, upon their decoding success. This is meant to avoid unnecessary transmissions, thereby…

Age of information (AoI) is gaining attention as a valuable performance metric for many IoT systems, in which a large number of devices report time-stamped updates to a central gateway. This is the case, for instance, of remote sensing,…
