Difference between Aloha and Slotted Aloha ?
Hello aspirant,
In Pure Aloha, Stations transmit whenever data is available at arbitrary times and Colliding frames are destroyed. While In Slotted aloha, A station is required to wait for the beginning of the next slot to transmit.
Now, we shall see the difference between these Protocols:
S.NO | Pure Aloha | Slotted Aloha |
---|---|---|
1. | In this aloha, any station can transmit the data at any time. | In this, any station can transmit the data at the beginning of any time slot. |
2. | In this, The time is continuous and not globally synchronized. | In this, The time is discrete and globally synchronized. |
3. |
Vulnerable time for pure aloha
= 2 x Tt |
Vulnerable time for Slotted aloha
= Tt |
4. |
In Pure Aloha, Probability of successful transmission of data packet
= G x e-2G |
In Slotted Aloha, Probability of successful transmission of data packet
= G x e-G |
5. |
In pure aloha, Maximum efficiency
= 18.4% |
In slotted aloha, Maximum efficiency
= 36.8% |
All the best for your future
