We propose and analyze a limited sensing random access algorithm, named CRADS, for a multi-user and multi-receiver direct sequence spread spectrum system. Utilizing the regenerative character of the induced by the algorithm output process, we compute throughputs subject to an upper bound on the probability of erroneous data decoding; we also compute the expected per packet delays. The CRADS induces uniformly good delays within its stability region, an is particularly appropriate for environments where the users are highly mobile. (Author)
