Abstract :
A multihop packet radio network using receiver-directed code-division multiple access (CDMA) is considered. The network is modeled as a system of interacting queues, and sufficient conditions for the stability of the queueing system model are obtained. Under an independence assumption, approximate results for the mean packet delay in a symmetric network are given. The results are used to characterize the throughput-delay performance of a symmetric network using frequency-hop spread-spectrum signalling.<>
