Capacity of S-ALOHA protocols using a smart antenna at the basestation
Abstract
We consider the capacity performance of several slotted ALOHA protocols adapted for smart antenna SDMA operation. We assume that a set of portable stations share a single radio link with a basestation which is equipped with a smart antenna operating in a multi-beam SDMA mode. The system uses time division duplexing so that the uplink and downlink spatial channels are highly correlated. Versions of the protocols are considered where initial …
