Abstract: In this paper, we optimize the non-cooperative Slotted ALOHA mechanism combined with ZigZag decoding for traffic requiring minimal transmission delay. Our analysis incorporates a Markov model and a game theory study of the former mechanism in order to accurately evaluate the performance of the system. We show through numerical results that the transmission delay increases considerably in congested networks. To this aim, we propose an optimization study of the mechanism to minimize the waiting time of the packets. Our analysis also includes a comparative study with the slotted ALOHA mechanism ...
