Abstract

The main contribution of this work is to propose efficient randomized leader election and initialization protocols for Packet Radio Networks (PRN, for short). As a result of the initialization protocol, the n stations of a PRN are assigned distinct integer IDs from1 to n. The results include protocols to: (1) initialize the single-channel PRN with the collision detection (CD) capability in O(n) rounds with probability at least 1 - 1/2n ; (2) initialize the k-channel PRN with CD capability in O( n/k ) rounds with probability at least 1 - 1/n , whenever k = n/3 log n ; (3) elect a leader on the single-channel PRN with no CD in O((log n)2 ) broadcast rounds with probability at least 1 -1/n ; (4) initialize the single-channel PRN with no CD in O(n) rounds with probability at least 1 - 1/2vn ; (5) initialize the k-channel PRN with no CD in O( n/k ) broadcast rounds with probability at least 1 - 1/n , whenever k = n/4(log n)2.
