Rate regulated TDMA system for cochannel interference limited wireless ad hoc networks

The time slotted system with rate regulation, which adapts the transmission rate to the interference for each time slot, is proposed to enhance the throughput while meeting the SINR requirement for cochannel interference limited wireless ad hoc networks. We show that the throughput of the rate regulated TDMA system is larger than that of the rate regulated TDMA/CDMA system. Furthermore, we also propose a scheduling algorithm to maximize the total throughput of the rate regulated TDMA system.
