In the realm of wireless communication, two essential multiple access protocols reign supreme: Pure Aloha and Slotted Aloha. Understanding their differences and applications is crucial for businesses seeking optimal network performance.
Pure Aloha operates on the principle of randomness. When a device wishes to transmit, it simply does so. Collisions, which occur when multiple devices transmit simultaneously, are inevitable. To mitigate this, Pure Aloha employs a simple rule: after a collision, the device waits for a random period before attempting another transmission.
Feature | Pure Aloha |
---|---|
Transmission Initiation | Asynchronous |
Slot Structure | Unslotted |
Collision Handling | Random backoff |
Efficiency | Low (18%) |
Slotted Aloha introduces a systematic approach to Pure Aloha's chaos. Devices are assigned specific time slots for transmission. This ensures that no devices can transmit at the same time, drastically reducing collisions. However, time synchronization is crucial for Slotted Aloha's success.
Feature | Slotted Aloha |
---|---|
Transmission Initiation | Synchronous |
Slot Structure | Slotted |
Collision Handling | No collisions occur |
Efficiency | Higher (36%) |
