Abstract
A method is intended for computing online a feasible rates region in a network using a random access MAC protocol and comprising nodes having links there between. This method comprises the steps of i) determining, for each link, a primary extreme point corresponding to a maximum output rate when this link transmits alone at a maximum input rate, and ii) determining secondary extreme points by combining these primary extreme points with a chosen interference model, these primary and secondary extreme points defining a boundary of a feasible rates region.
