Pure and slotted ALOHA are two fundamental protocols that govern the access and transmission of data in wireless networks. Understanding their mechanisms and capabilities is crucial for businesses seeking to optimize their wireless network performance and maximize user satisfaction.
Pure ALOHA is a simple and efficient medium access control (MAC) protocol for wireless networks. It operates on the principle that each transmitting node sends data packets at random intervals. If two or more nodes transmit simultaneously, their packets collide and are lost. To recover from collisions, nodes wait for a random amount of time before retrying transmission.

Slotted ALOHA is an improved version of pure ALOHA that introduces a time-division multiple access (TDMA) scheme. In slotted ALOHA, time is divided into fixed-sized slots, and nodes are allowed to transmit only at the beginning of a slot. This eliminates collisions that occur due to overlapping transmissions.

Maximum throughput | 50% |
Probability of collision | G * (1 / S) |
Time slot size | Depends on the network requirements |
