  • Abstract
    We consider a slotted Aloha random access system with combined coding and power/retransmission control. Under suitable conditions, if M or fewer users transmit simultaneously, they are successfully decoded with high probability, with M depending on coding rate and SINR. We show then that, among any realizable random access protocol, slotted Aloha´s spectral efficiency and maximum throughput are asymptotically optimal as the coding rate vanishes.
