Abstract: IEEE 802.11ax introduces Uplink Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA)-based Random Access (UORA), a novel feature for facilitating random channel access in Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs). Similar to the conventional random access scheme in WLANs, UORA employs the OFDMA backoff (OBO) procedure to access the channel’s Resource Units (RUs) and selects a random OBO counter within the OFDMA contention window (OCW) range. The Access Point (AP) can determine and communicate this OCW range to each station (STA). Multiple STAs accessing RUs result in transmission failure due to RU collisions, which occur when specific RUs remain unassessed by any STA, leading to wastage. Efforts to optimize channel efficiency require minimizing both collisions and idle RU despite the challenges arising from UORA’s distributed and random nature. The Fisher-Yates shuffle algorithm introduces a random uniform distribution strategy for managing RU allocations among STAs. The results demonstrate that this approach enables STAs to access RUs in a distributed manner, effectively reducing idle and wasted RUs, especially in scenarios involving a limited number of STAs. Furthermore, this approach effectively mitigates collisions among STAs, even in scenarios with a more significant number of STAs.
