% Instructions to the code of ALLIANCES.
% channel_gen_ng.m	generate channel matrix HA HH by invoking Gen_Jake2.m
% Gen_Jake2.m		Generate Jake's model channel matrix
% coop_ng.m		Main program. simulate the ALLIANCES network and get the curve for Throughput vs workload
% aloha.m		Simulation of slotted aloha system
% ndma.m		Simulation of the ndma system 
% mapper2.m		Decoding

% decodpac.m		ML Decoding
% spheredecod3.m 	ML Decoding

First adjusting the parameters in channel_gen_ng.m 
(f:bit rate;M:channel length;J:number of users;N:length of packet;v:mobile speed)
then generate the channel matrix. The channel matrix is stored in a .mat file. load in this file every time simulating.

Other instructions can be found in the comment of each m file.
