Abstract :
Calculation of the throughput of a carrier sense multiple access (CSMA) packet radio network with capture over slow Rayleigh-fading channels is presented. The effects of capture on the throughput of the system are related to the modulation and coding technique of the transmission system, the general distribution of terminals in the area and the length of the transmitted packets. BPSK modulation and BCH coding are considered.
