Kurzfassung
The optimal control of the broadcast channel requires the knowledge of a non-measurable state variable, the number N of blocked terminals. After presenting some simulation results with N assumed to be known, we propose an adaptive control policy which we compare with the optimal control using a least squares estimator of N. We end by studying a generalized model of the system with considerably improved performances thanks to FM capture. Some simulation runs are backing mathematical and numerical results.
