Performance analysis of general backoff protocols
In this paper, we analyze backoff protocols, such as the one used in Ethernet. We examine a general backoff function(GBF) rather than just the binary exponential backoff (BEB) used by Ethernet. Under some mild assumptions we find stability and optimality conditions for a wide class of backoff protoc...
