Abstract :
The performance of stop-and-wait, go-back-N, and selective-repeat ARQ protocols is examined for a multichannel system. The channels can either operate independently or jointly. For each protocol, the results obtained include throughput efficiency and delay. The results are also validated by computer simulations. The performance is compared to that of the single-channel system under the constraint of fixed total capacity. It is observed that the multichannel system has a chance to outperform the single-channel system
