Abstract
The paper compares the performance of two channel-access schemes suitable for the cellular environment, which, in particular, allow the packet capture and can deal with inter-cell interference. The first scheme is the well known S-ALOHA while the second one is the Capture Division Packet Access, recently proposed. The comparison is analytically performed over a common system with a common analytical model. Despite the many analyses appeared on S-ALOHA, the one we develop is new because a throughput density uniformly distributed on the plane is considered in a multiple cell environment. The analysis clearly shows the effect of intra-cell and inter-cell interference on the ALOHA system and quantifies the throughput gain achieved by CDPA, which completely avoids intra-cell interference. Our analysis also provides insight about the effectiveness of power control on both systems.
