Abstract
Wireless random access channels can provide communications from many terminals to a single hub station. Examples of such channels occur in cellular networks, personal communication networks (PCN’s), packet radio networks, local area networks (LAN’s) and very small aperture terminal (VSAT) satellite networks.
