The stations on a wireless ALOHA network are a
maximum of 600 km apart. If we assume that signals
propagate at 3 × 108 m/s, we find
Tp = (600 × 105
) / (3 × 108
) = 2 ms.
Now we can find the value of TB for different values of
K .
a. For K = 1, the range is {0, 1}. The station needs to|
generate a random number with a value of 0 or 1. This
means that TB is either 0 ms (0 × 2) or 2 ms (1 × 2),
based on the outcome of the random variable.
Example 12.1
7. 12.7
b. For K = 2, the range is {0, 1, 2, 3}. This means that TB
can be 0, 2, 4, or 6 ms, based on the outcome of the
random variable.
c. For K = 3, the range is {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}. This
means that TB can be 0, 2, 4, . . . , 14 ms, based on the
outcome of the random variable.
d. We need to mention that if K > 10, it is normally set to
10.
Example 12.1 (continued)
9. 12.9
A pure ALOHA network transmits 200-bit frames on a
shared channel of 200 kbps. What is the requirement to
make this frame collision-free?
Example 12.2
Solution
Average frame transmission time Tfr is 200 bits/200 kbps or
1 ms. The vulnerable time is 2 × 1 ms = 2 ms. This means
no station should send later than 1 ms before this station
starts transmission and no station should start sending
during the one 1-ms period that this station is sending.
10. 12.10
The throughput for pure ALOHA is
S = G × e −2G
.
The maximum throughput
Smax = 0.184 when G= (1/2).
Note
11. 12.11
A pure ALOHA network transmits 200-bit frames on a
shared channel of 200 kbps. What is the throughput if the
system (all stations together) produces
a. 1000 frames per second b. 500 frames per second
c. 250 frames per second.
Example 12.3
Solution
The frame transmission time is 200/200 kbps or 1 ms.
a. If the system creates 1000 frames per second, this is 1
frame per millisecond. The load is 1. In this case
S = G× e−2 G
or S = 0.135 (13.5 percent). This means
that the throughput is 1000 × 0.135 = 135 frames. Only
135 frames out of 1000 will probably survive.
12. 12.12
Example 12.3 (continued)
b. If the system creates 500 frames per second, this is
(1/2) frame per millisecond. The load is (1/2). In this
case S = G × e −2G
or S = 0.184 (18.4 percent). This
means that the throughput is 500 × 0.184 = 92 and that
only 92 frames out of 500 will probably survive. Note
that this is the maximum throughput case,
percentagewise.
c. If the system creates 250 frames per second, this is (1/4)
frame per millisecond. The load is (1/4). In this case
S = G × e −2G
or S = 0.152 (15.2 percent). This means
that the throughput is 250 × 0.152 = 38. Only 38
frames out of 250 will probably survive.
16. 12.16
A slotted ALOHA network transmits 200-bit frames on a
shared channel of 200 kbps. What is the throughput if the
system (all stations together) produces
a. 1000 frames per second b. 500 frames per second
c. 250 frames per second.
Example 12.4
Solution
The frame transmission time is 200/200 kbps or 1 ms.
a. If the system creates 1000 frames per second, this is 1
frame per millisecond. The load is 1. In this case
S = G× e−G
or S = 0.368 (36.8 percent). This means
that the throughput is 1000 × 0.0368 = 368 frames.
Only 386 frames out of 1000 will probably survive.
17. 12.17
Example 12.4 (continued)
b. If the system creates 500 frames per second, this is
(1/2) frame per millisecond. The load is (1/2). In this
case S = G × e−G
or S = 0.303 (30.3 percent). This
means that the throughput is 500 × 0.0303 = 151.
Only 151 frames out of 500 will probably survive.
c. If the system creates 250 frames per second, this is (1/4)
frame per millisecond. The load is (1/4). In this case
S = G × e −G
or S = 0.195 (19.5 percent). This means
that the throughput is 250 × 0.195 = 49. Only 49
frames out of 250 will probably survive.
24. 12.24
A network using CSMA/CD has a bandwidth of 10 Mbps.
If the maximum propagation time (including the delays in
the devices and ignoring the time needed to send a
jamming signal, as we see later) is 25.6 μs, what is the
minimum size of the frame?
Example 12.5
Solution
The frame transmission time is Tfr = 2 × Tp = 51.2 μs.
This means, in the worst case, a station needs to transmit
for a period of 51.2 μs to detect the collision. The
minimum size of the frame is 10 Mbps × 51.2 μs = 512
bits or 64 bytes. This is actually the minimum size of the
frame for Standard Ethernet.
28. 12.28
In CSMA/CA, the IFS can also be used to
define the priority of a station or a
frame.
Note
29. 12.29
In CSMA/CA, if the station finds the
channel busy, it does not restart the
timer of the contention window;
it stops the timer and restarts it when
the channel becomes idle.

a. For a two-station network, we have
[+1 +1] and [+1 −1].
b. For a four-station network we have
[+1 +1 +1 +1], [+1 −1 +1 −1],
[+1 +1 −1 −1], and [+1 −1 −1 +1].

What is the number of sequences if we have 90 stations in
our network?
Example 12.7
Solution
The number of sequences needs to be 2m
. We need to
choose m = 7 and N = 27
or 128. We can then use 90
of the sequences as the chips.
52. 12.52
Prove that a receiving station can get the data sent by a
specific sender if it multiplies the entire data on the
channel by the sender’s chip code and then divides it by
the number of stations.
Example 12.8
Solution
Let us prove this for the first station, using our previous
four-station example. We can say that the data on the
channel
D = (d1 c
⋅ 1 + d2 c
⋅ 2 + d3 c
⋅ 3 + d4 c
⋅ 4).
The receiver which wants to get the data sent by station 1
multiplies these data by c1.
