  • Abstract
    The authors present a continuous-time Markov chain model for a single-hop network using the unslotted Aloha scheme. Two interconnected networks using the unslotted Aloha scheme have also been modeled, assuming that the gateway has a finite buffer. The mathematical model derived from the unslotted Aloha system is a special case of the model developed by R.R. Roy and T.N. Saadawi (1984). Throughput, delay, blocking probability, and throughput-delay tradeoffs are presented for the gateway, each of the networks, and the entire system of interconnected networks
