| Abstract | To enhance the throughput of a slotted random access protocol in a radio communication system, we describe the use of a scheme in which multiple power levels are used at the transmitters. We first consider a situation in which n transmitters are simultaneously trying to send a packet to a central receiving station using a time‐slotted access protocol, like slotted ALOHA. Each of these transmitters randomly chooses one of m discrete power levels during each attempt to send a packet. One of the simultaneously sent packets can often be successfully received due to the power capture effect. We consider two types of capture models: (1) one in which the transmitter with the largest received power captures the channel, and (2) one in which the transmitter captures the channel only if its signal‐to‐interference ratio is above some threshold when received at the central station. In this paper, we determine the optimal transmit probabilities for the power levels as well as the optimal values of the power levels themselves, when their range is constrained and for cases both with and without Rayleigh fading. After determining the precise optimal power levels and probabilities for maximizing the capture probabilities (i.e., for a given n), we propose a less complex, but nearly optimal, approximate approach based on using logarithmically equi‐spaced levels. After demonstrating the closeness of our suboptimal results to the optimal results, we apply our approach to the problem of optimizing the throughput of the slotted ALOHA protocol for a case in which the input traffic is generated according to a Poisson process. Several numerical examples are presented along with a demonstration of how the optimal choice of power levels and probabilities can enhance throughput relative to previous ad hoc methodologies. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
