Abstract
The Home Phoneline Networking Alliance (HomePNA) 3.0 technology is designed to provide high-speed backbones for home multimedia networks. This technology adopts a collision management protocol in an asynchronous medium access control (MAC) mode to reduce the number of collisions. In this letter, we present a simple analytical model to compute the saturation throughput performance of the collision management protocol, and compare the performance with that of HomePNA 2.0.
