Abstract
In this paper, we consider a wireless cellular system with an unbounded population of machine-type users. The system provides a number of non-interfering slotted-time channels which users contend for when sending their uplink data packets. We propose a provably stable control procedure for the channel access probability in the sense that it maintains a finite number of unserviced users in the system. We also compare the proposed algorithm against the optimal multi-channel slotted Aloha to conclude that our solution demonstrates near-optimum performance.Keywords
