摘要
We present a coherent and systematic review of Random Access Algorithms for packet networks, as developed over three and a half decades. We consider the appropriate user models and we classify the algorithms according to the channel sensing constraints imposed. We also present a review of the analytical methodologies required for the performance analysis of these algorithms.
