A Packet Reservation Multiple Access (PRMA) provided for future system is studied in thesis, both analysis and simulation are presented and discussed. The study results show that the PRMA can enhance the system capacity by a factor of 1.64 than that of the conventional TDMA system. Since the PRMA has an unstable phenomenon in heavy load condition, in which the reservation capacity will shrink to zero, we propose a modified version of PRMA, called Non-Collision PRMA (NC-PRMA), to resolve the unstable problem; both analysis and simulation are also presented. According to the study results we have realized that the NC-PRMA has not any unstable problem and has a higher system capacity than PRMA does, 1.73 times that of conventional TDMA system. Finally, we also study the effect of providing a capture mechanism to PRMA. The results reveal that the capture mechanism is also an effective and powerful strategy to resolve the unstable problem. Although some studies show that the Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) technique has a lot of theoretical advantages for the future systems, In consideration of commercial and implemented aspects, the packet reservation protocols based on TDMA techniques are worth being considered for the future system.
