Random Time and Frequency Hopping for Infinite User Population

  • Chapter
Book cover Communications and Cryptography

Abstract

Multiaccess for a Poisson population is considered through a single multi-input, single-output collision channel without feedback for time hopping, and also through L such channels for frequency hopping. Synchronism as well as asynchronism are included. Upper bounds are given on the decoding error probability. Each of these consists of a first term due to overflow (above a threshold that is a design parameter), a second term due to identification error (under no overflow) and a third term due to collision (under neither overflow nor identification error). The third term, exponential in the message length, is obtained by Hoeffding’s inequality for all cases, considering either the original model itself or a well-defined dominating model (with additional erasures generated appropriately). Proofs are given in the first case; just references in the second.
