The throughput of hybrid-ARQ protocols for the Gaussian collision channel
Abstract
In next-generation wireless communication systems, packet-oriented data transmission will be implemented in addition to standard mobile telephony. We take an information-theoretic view of some simple protocols for reliable packet communication based on "hybrid-ARQ," over a slotted multiple-access Gaussian channel with fading and study their throughput (total bit per second per hertz) and average delay under idealized but fairly general assumptions. As an application of the renewal-reward theorem, we obtain closed-form throughput formulas. Then, we consider asymptotic behaviors with respect to various system parameters. The throughput of automatic retransmission request (ARQ) protocols is compared to that of code division multiple access (CDMA) with conventional decoding. Interestingly, the ARQ systems are not interference-limited even if no multiuser detection or joint decoding is used, as opposed to conventional CDMA.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
