Abstract :
In this paper, the multiaccess broadcast communication channel operating under a TDMA control discipline and employing an ARQ scheme is examined. The generating function of the message delay distribution is derived. The effects of nonzero bit error rates on multipacket messages under several stop-and-wait and block ARQ systems are incorporated. Numerical results for the steady-state mean and variance of the message delay are presented for a stationary transmission error process model in which errors occur as independent events. Results for this channel under a select-and-repeat ARQ system are developed for single packet messages. Stability requirements are stated, useful bounds on the average message delay at steady state are derived, and numerical examples are presented.
