Abstract A MAC protocol, termed Dual Busy Tone Multiple Access(DBTMA), is a random access mechanism with high channel utilization for WLAN. However, it is difficult to realize the protocol with hardware. This paper proposes a new random access mechanism based on OFDM system by making simple modification on DBTMA and integrating it with power awase multi-access protocol with signalling. Furthermore, the new protocol is analysed and the result indicates that the proposed random access system shows well performance and is easy to be realized.
