Abstract :
The delays analysis of multihop packet radio networks using busy-tone type protocols is presented. An interrupted link queue model is proposed to resolve the difficulties of dependency and interference between different users and an embedded Markov chain for the queue is formulated. The steady state behavior of the system is studied and the delay-throughput performance is given. Numerical results are compared for the network performance under receiver-initiated busy-tone multiple access (RI-BTMA) and conservative BTMA (C-BTMA). It is found that RI-BTMA performs better because of better utilization of the spatial reuse property of multihop packet radio networks
