Abstract

In this paper we study medium access control with interference management. We formulate a SINR-based dynamic channel access as a stochastic game in which the players adapt their retransmission scheme based on their own back-off state. We analyze the asymptotics of the system using mean field dynamics. Both stable and unstable behaviors are illustrated. Limit cycles elimination and their associated performance losses are discussed.
