The impact of imperfect channel state information (CSI) on the transmission control of channel-aware slotted ALOHA networks is studied in this work. By taking into consideration the statistics of the channel estimation error to maximize the achievable stable throughput, we obtain the optimal transmission control policy that determines the transmission probability, rate, and power that should be adopted under each channel state. Specifically, with imperfect CSI, users allocate transmission probabilities to channel states that allow for high probability of successful transmission, which is similar to the case with perfect CSI, but the rate allocation must be performed more conservatively in order to avoid transmission error due to imprecise channel estimates. The policies are first developed for single carrier systems but later extended to multi-carrier systems with maximum per-user power constraints. The asymptotic stable throughput is analyzed for both the single and multiple carrier systems as the number of users goes to infinity. We observe that, with channel estimation error, the proposed transmission control policy that takes into consideration the error statistics may significant increase the throughput compared to strategies that are derived under the perfect CSI assumption.
