Abstract

We propose a new and exact method to analyze the throughput of the DS CDMA unslotted ALOHA system with variable number of fixed-length packets. The proposed scheme requires two-dimensional summation while the previous requires four. Thus the proposed analysis scheme is of less computational complexity. The proposed analysis result is also slightly closer to the simulation result than the previous analysis result is, especially in heavier offered load.
