Abstract

Currently, IEEE 802.16a wireless MAN supports the contention based OFDMA-CDMA ranging subsystem for ranging operation (Initial Ranging, Periodic Ranging, Bandwidth Request)[1]. This system uses essentially the slotted ALOHA protocol. However, the number of code-slots/frame for random access transmission tends to be much greater than one and a simple Markov chain analysis may not be numerically feasible. At the same time, the frame size in number of code-slots may be dynamically adjusted based on the traffic load. In order to evaluate delay-throughput performance and stability measure of the random access protocol, we first examine the possible traffic load to be carried throughput the ranging subchannel. We the present performance analysis and numerical examples.
