Abstract :
A simple full-feedback-sensing window random-access algorithm is proposed and analyzed in the presence of the Poisson user model. The throughput of the algorithm is 0.43. The proposed algorithm is better than J.I. Capetanaki´s dynamic algorithm (1979) with respect to its delay and resistance to channel errors. The simple operations of the algorithm, along with its regenerative properties, facilitate the computation of the output traffic interdeparture distribution. The obtained distribution is useful in the evaluation of interacting systems which adopt the algorithm for their internal transmissions.<>
