A channel with multiplicity feedback in case of collision returns the exact number of stations simultaneously transmitting. In this model, time rounds are sufficient and necessary to identify d transmitting stations out of n. In contrast, in the ternary feedback model the time complexity is . Generalizing, we can define a feedback interval , where , such that the channel returns the exact number of transmitting stations only if this number is within that interval. For a feedback interval centered in we show that it is possible to get the same optimal time complexity for the channel with multiplicity feedback even if the interval has only size . On the other hand, if we further reduce the size to , then we show that no protocol having time complexity is possible.

反馈有限的最佳信道利用率
发生冲突时具有多重反馈的信道返回同时发送的确切站数。在这个模型中时间周期足以确定n个中的d个发射站。相反,在三元反馈模型中,时间复杂度为。概括地说,我们可以定义一个反馈间隔 , 在哪里 ,这样,仅当该数目在该间隔内时,信道才返回发射站的确切数目。对于居中的反馈间隔 我们证明即使间隔只有一个大小,也可以通过多重反馈获得相同的最佳时间复杂度 。另一方面,如果我们进一步将尺寸减小到,那么我们证明没有协议具有时间复杂性 是可能的。
