Abstract

In this paper, we present a discrete time Markov chain based analytical framework for the study of Direct-Sequence Code-Division-Multiple-Access (DS-CDMA) with slotted ALOHA random access protocols (DS-CDMA-S-ALOHA) for packet Personal Communications Networks (PCNs). It incorporates both the random access and the random errors associated with DS-CDMA-S-ALOHA protocols into a unified framework. The key feature is that it distinguishes between the two stages in the transmission process, namely the access stage and the reception stage, which characterize the random access and the random errors associated with DS-CDMA-S-ALOHA protocols respectively. Two DS-CDMA-S-ALOHA protocols are presented and analyzed. The performance of the protocols and the effects of the design parameters, namely the packet retransmission probability and the forward error correction code rate of the Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem (BCH) block codes are evaluad numerically and compared with a bandwidth equivalent conventional multi-channel slotted ALOHA system. The results show that, by proper design, the DS-CDMA-S-ALOHA protocols can double the throughput with respect to that of a bandwidth equivalent conventional multi-channel slotted ALOHA system.
