The channel's possible state are (1) idle, (2) successful transmission and (3) collision. For the particular values of the authors' proposed four parameter model, we get the following transition matrix 0.50 0.40 0.10 P=10.02 0.98 0 0.12 0.88 1. Verify that P is the transition matrix of an Ergodic (regular) Markov Chain. 2. Determine the steady state probabilities for this channel 3. What proportion of the time is the channel idle, in the long run. 4. What is the average number of time steps between successive collisions?
