Abstract :
A random multiple-access system which uses a collision resolution algorithm for accessing a common time-varying channel is considered. The channel is assumed to be in one of two states. In each state the channel is characterized by a general discrete memoryless channel, and the transitions between the two states are assumed to be Markovian. A set of sufficient conditions for the ergodicity (stability) of the system is established. As an example, the case when the Capetanakis tree algorithm operates with a time-varying noisy channel is examined. The stability of this system is analyzed and the throughput is evaluated
