Capacity Scaling of Ad Hoc Networks with Spatial Diversity

Evaluation of MIMO Techniques in FH-MA Ad Hoc Networks

“…It is found that selecting a MIMO technique depends on the chosen metric, the number of antennas and the propagation exponent. The trends observed are similar to those presented in [9], however, we arrive at them via a different analytical path.…”

“…In the outage probability framework of [9], it was observed that the transmission capacity of the network also follows the trend of τ o . Based on (10), we can further optimize the NT or the IE over the number of streams m, when SM is employed.…”

Analysis of Dense Ad Hoc Networks with Spatial Diversity

“…For the dense networks we are considering, we extend the results in [2] and derive analytical expressions for the contention density for MIMO-MRC and OSTBC. In the MIMO-MRC case, we first find new expansions for the distribution of the SIR in the high interference regime typical in dense networks.…”

“…In this paper, we consider a different scenario from [2] by analyzing dense ad hoc networks. This requires analysis of P(SIR ≥ β) in the high tail or large outage regime.…”

“…This was extended to multiple antennas in [2] where spatial diversity techniques were used and the channels were modeled by both path loss and fading. This work focused on the small outage regime and therefore relates to networks with a sparse distribution of nodes.…”
