Consider a CSMA scheme.
a) Prove that the system throughput as a function of the normalized offered traffic G is a decreasing function of the normalized channel propagation delay.
b) Compute S for Compare these results with the normalized throughput of ALOHA and find the value of τ˜p, referred to as τ˜∗ p for which the throughput of ALOHA overcomes that of non-persistent CSMA.
