Abstract

In practical random access networks, a packet discard scheme is usually applied to alleviate the network congestion, where a packet will be discarded if its retransmission times reaches the limit K. In this paper, the effect of retransmission limit K on the throughput performance of slotted Aloha over Rayleigh fading channels is studied. Explicit expression of the maximum throughput is obtained as a function of the SINR threshold \(\mu \) and mean received SNR \(\rho \). The analysis shows that though the maximum throughput is independent of the retransmission limit K, the corresponding optimal initial transmission probability of nodes has to cautiously selected in accordance with the retransmission limit K and the backoff function \(\left\{ \omega _i\right\} _{i=0,...,K-1}\).
