In this paper, we consider wireless sensor networks (WSNs) with sensor nodes exhibiting clustering in their deployment. We model the coverage region of such WSNs by Boolean Poisson cluster models (BPCM) where sensors nodes' location is according to a Poisson cluster process (PCP) and each sensor has an independent sensing range around it. We consider two variants of PCP, in particular \matern and Thomas cluster process to form Boolean \matern and Thomas cluster models. We first derive the capacity functional of these models. Using the derived expressions, we compute the sensing probability of an event and compare it with sensing probability of a WSN modeled by a Boolean Poisson model where sensors are deployed according to a Poisson point process. We also derive the power required for each cluster to collect data from all of its sensors for the three considered WSNs. We show that a BPCM WSN has less power requirement in comparison to the Boolean Poisson WSN, but it suffers from lower coverage, leading to a trade-off between per-cluster power requirement and the sensing performance. A cluster process with desired clustering may provide better coverage while maintaining low power requirements.
Consider a wireless cellular network consisting of small, densely scattered base stations. A user $u$ is {\em uniquely covered} by a base station $b$ if $u$ is the only user within distance $r$ of $b$. This makes it possible to assign the user $u$ to the base station $b$ without interference from any other user $u'$. We investigate the maximum possible proportion of users who are uniquely covered. We solve this problem completely in one dimension and provide bounds, approximations and simulation results for the two-dimensional case.
The downlink coverage probability of a cellular network, when the base station locations are modelled by a Poisson point process (PPP), is known when the desired channel is Nakagami distributed with an integer shape parameter. However, for many interesting fading distributions such as Rician, Rician shadowing, $κ$-$μ$, $η$-$μ$, etc., the coverage probability is unknown. $κ$-$μ$ shadowed fading is a generic fading distribution whose special cases are many of these popular distributions known so far. In this letter, we derive the coverage probability when the desired channel experiences $κ$-$μ$ …
Performances of cellular networks over κ-μ shadowed fading with long-term shadowing has been studied in the existing literature. However, the impact of κ-μ shadowed fading with instantaneous shadowing on performances of cellular networks is unknown. Therefore, this letter analyzes the downlink coverage probability of a Poisson network with double shadowed fading which is composed of a large-scale fading of lognormal distribution and κ-μ shadowed fading with integer fading parameters. The closest base station association rule without shadowing is considered. For analytical tractability, the dou…
Poisson-Poisson cluster processes (PPCPs) are a class of point processes exhibiting attractive point patterns. Recently, PPCPs are actively studied for modeling and analysis of heterogeneous cellular networks or device-to-device networks. However, surprisingly, to the best knowledge of the author, there is no exact derivation of downlink coverage probability in a numerically computable form for a cellular network with base stations (BSs) deployed according to a PPCP within the most fundamental setup such as single-tier, Rayleigh fading and nearest BS association. In this paper, we consider thi…
This paper develops a framework to study multi-hop relaying in a vehicular network consisting of vehicles and Road Side Units (RSUs), and the effect of this relaying on the network coverage and the communication delay. We use a stochastic geometry model that consists of a combination of Poisson Line Process (PLP) and 1D Poisson Point Process (PPP) to reliably characterize the vehicular network layout and the locations of the vehicles and the RSUs. Using this model, we analyze the effect of the different network parameters on the coverage provided by the RSUs to the vehicles. Then, we investiga…
Network coverage of wireless sensor network (WSN) means how well an area of interest is being monitored by the deployed network. It depends mainly on sensing model of nodes. In this paper, we present three types of sensing models viz. Boolean sensing model, shadow-fading sensing model and Elfes sensing model. We investigate the impact of sensing models on network coverage. We also investigate network coverage based on Poisson node distribution. A comparative study between regular and random node placement has also been presented in this paper. This study will be useful for coverage analysis of…
In this letter, we focus on the performance of a worst-case mobile user (MU) in the downlink cellular network. We derive the coverage probability and the spectral efficiency of the worst-case MU using stochastic geometry. Through analytical and numerical results, we draw out interesting insights that the coverage probability and the spectral efficiency of the worst-case MU decrease down to 23% and 19% of those of a typical MU, respectively. By applying a coordinated scheduling (CS) scheme, we also investigate how much the performance of the worst-case MU is improved.
In this paper, we consider a vehicular network in which the wireless nodes are located on a system of roads. We model the roadways, which are predominantly straight and randomly oriented, by a Poisson line process (PLP) and the locations of nodes on each road as a homogeneous 1D Poisson point process (PPP). Assuming that each node transmits independently, the locations of transmitting and receiving nodes are given by two Cox processes driven by the same PLP. For this setup, we derive the coverage probability of a typical receiver, which is an arbitrarily chosen receiving node, assuming indepen…
This paper analyzes an emerging architecture of cellular network utilizing both planar base stations uniformly distributed in Euclidean plane and base stations located on roads. An example of this architecture is that where, in addition to conventional planar cellular base stations and users, vehicles also play the role of both base stations and users. A Poisson line process is used to model the road network and, conditionally on the lines, linear Poisson point processes are used to model the vehicles on the roads. The conventional planar base stations and users are modeled by independent plan…
Ecosystem of a forest suffers from many adverse events such as wild-fire which can occur randomly anywhere in the forest and grows in size with time. This paper aims to analyze performance of a network of randomly deployed wireless sensors for the early detection of these time-critical and time-evolving events in a forest. We consider that the forest lies in a confined space (e.g. a circular region) and the wireless sensors, with fixed sensing range, are deployed within the boundary of forest itself. The sensing area of the network is modeled as a finite Boolean-Poisson model. In this model, t…
The homogeneous Poisson point process (PPP) is widely used to model spatial distribution of base stations and mobile terminals. The same process can be used to model underlay device-to-device (D2D) network, however, neglecting homophilic relation for D2D pairing presents underestimated system insights. In this paper, we model both spatial and social distributions of interfering D2D nodes as proximity based independently marked homogeneous Poisson point process. The proximity considers physical distance between D2D nodes whereas social relationship is modeled as Zipf based marks. We apply these…
In heterogeneous networks, the random deployment of femto access points (FAPs) and macro base stations (MBSs) with uncoordinated channel access impose huge inter-tier interferences. In real-life networks, the process of MBSs deployment exhibits the homogeneity, however the FAPs have the behavioral characteristic of clusters formation like in malls, apartments, offices, etc. Therefore, the composite modeling of the MBSs and the FAPs using Poisson point process and Poisson cluster process is employed for the evaluation of coverage probability. The scenario of the real-time traffic for macro-tier…
The notion of meta distribution as the distribution of the conditional coverage probability (CCP) was introduced in \cite{Haenggi2015}. In this letter, we show how we can reconstruct the entire meta distribution only from its moments using Fourier-Jacobi expansion. As an example, we specifically consider Poisson cellular networks. We also provide a simple closed-form approximation for its moments, along with its error analysis. Lastly, we apply the approximation to obtain a power scaling law for downlink Poisson cellular networks.
In this letter, we introduce a general cellular network model where i) users and BSs are distributed as two general point processes that may be coupled, ii) pathloss is assumed to follow a multi-slope power-law pathloss model, and iii) fading (power) is assumed to be independent across all wireless links. For this setup, we first obtain a set of contours representing the same meta distribution of SIR, which is the distribution of the conditional coverage probability given the point process, for different values of the parameters of the pathloss function and BS and user point processes. This ge…
The growing complexity of heterogeneous cellular networks (HetNets) has necessitated a variety of user and base station (BS) configurations to be considered for realistic performance evaluation and system design. This is directly reflected in the HetNet simulation models proposed by standardization bodies, such as the third generation partnership project (3GPP). Complementary to these simulation models, stochastic geometry-based approach, modeling the locations of the users and the K tiers of BSs as independent and homogeneous Poisson point processes (PPPs), has gained prominence in the past f…
In this paper, we analyze the energy coverage performance of heterogeneous millimeter wave (mmWave) wireless power transfer (WPT) networks, where macro base stations (MBSs) are distributed according to a Poisson point process (PPP), the location of power beacons (PBs) is modeled as a $k$-tier Poisson cluster process (PCP), and energy users (EUs) are clustered around the centers of PB clusters. Moreover, the cosine antenna gain model is adopted instead of the prevalent flap-top gain model, which is simpler in derivation but less accurate. Based on the generalized exponential distribution approx…
A K-tier heterogeneous downlink millimeter wave (mmWave) cellular network with user-centric small cell deployments is studied in this paper. In particular, we consider a heterogeneous network model with user equipments (UEs) being distributed according to a Poisson Cluster Process (PCP). Specifically, we address two cluster processes, namely (i) Thomas cluster process, where the UEs are clustered around the base stations (BSs) and the distances between UEs and the BS are modeled as Gaussian distributed, and (ii) Matern cluster process, where the UEs are scattered according to a uniform distrib…
In this paper, we study coverage probabilities of the UAV-assisted cellular network modeled by 2-dimension (2D) Poisson point process. The cellular user is assumed to connect to the nearest aerial base station. We derive the explicit expressions for the downlink coverage probability for the Rayleigh fading channel. Furthermore, we explore the behavior of performance when taking the property of air-to-ground channel into consideration. Our analytical and numerical results show that the coverage probability is affected by UAV height, pathloss exponent and UAV density. To maximize the coverage pr…
Owing to its flexibility in modeling real-world spatial configurations of users and base stations (BSs), the Poisson cluster process (PCP) has recently emerged as an appealing way to model and analyze heterogeneous cellular networks (HetNets). Despite its undisputed relevance to HetNets -- corroborated by the models used in industry -- the PCP's use in performance analysis has been limited. This is primarily because of the lack of analytical tools to characterize performance metrics such as the coverage probability of a user connected to the strongest BS. In this paper, we develop an analytica…
We develop an analytical framework to examine the line-of-sight (LOS) coverage area in vehicular networks with roadside units (RSU) and vehicle relays. In practical deployment scenarios, RSUs and vehicle relays are spatially correlated and we characterize this by employing Cox point processes to model the locations of RSUs and vehicle relays simultaneously. Leveraging the random blockage model, we model the LOS coverage area as Boolean models on these Cox point processes. The LOS coverage area is then evaluated by its area fraction. We show that relays can increase the area fraction of LOS cov…
Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) emerges as a promising technology for the next generation networks. In this paper, we utilize the tools from stochastic geometry to study the performance of a RIS-assisted millimeter wave (mmWave) cellular network. Specifically, the locations of the base stations (BSs) and the midpoints of the blockages are modeled as two independent Poisson point processes (PPP) where the blockages are modeled by line boolean model and a fraction of the blockages are coated with RISs. The distinguish characteristics of mmWave communications, i.e., the directional beamf…
Heterogeneous cellular networks (HCNs) usually exhibit spatial separation amongst base stations (BSs) of different types (termed tiers in this paper). For instance, operators will usually not deploy a picocell in close proximity to a macrocell, thus inducing separation amongst the locations of pico and macrocells. This separation has recently been captured by modeling the small cell locations by a Poisson Hole Process (PHP) with the hole centers being the locations of the macrocells. Due to the presence of exclusion zones, the analysis of the resulting model is significantly more complex compa…
In a Poisson Point Process (PPP) network model, in which the locations of Base Stations (BSs) are randomly distributed according to a Spatial Poisson Process, has been recently used as a tractable stochastic model to analyse the performance of downlink Heterogeneous Cellular Networks (HCNs). The HCN is modelled as a multi-tier cellular network where each tier is characterised by the transmission power level, propagation path loss exponent and density of BSs. The current works on HCN enabling Intercell Interference Coordination (ICIC) technique usually deal with Strict Frequency Reuse (FR) or S…

This paper develops a new approach to the modeling and analysis of HetNets that accurately incorporates coupling across the locations of users and base stations, which exists due to the deployment of small cell base stations (SBSs) at the places of high user density (termed user hotspots in this paper). Modeling the locations of the geographical centers of user hotspots as a homogeneous Poisson Point Process (PPP), we assume that the users and SBSs are clustered around each user hotspot center independently with two different distributions. The macrocell base station (BS) locations are modeled…
Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) is a transmission technique for cellular systems that uses many antennas to support not-as-many users. Thus far, the performance of massive MIMO has only been examined in finite cellular networks. In this letter, we analyze its performance in random cellular networks with Poisson distributed base station locations. Specifically, we provide analytical expressions for the asymptotic coverage probability and rate in both downlink and uplink when each base station has a large number of antennas. The results show that, though limited by pilot contaminat…
We analyze the coverage probability of multi-user uplink cellular networks with fractional power control. We use a stochastic geometry approach where the mobile users are distributed as a Poisson Point Process (PPP), whereas the serving base station (BS) is placed at the origin. Using conditional thinning, we are able to calculate the coverage probability of $k$ users which are allocated a set of orthogonal resources in the cell of interest, obtaining analytical expressions for this probability considering their respective distances to the serving BS. These expressions give useful insights on …
This paper investigates the performance of millimeter wave (mmWave) communications in clustered device-to-device (D2D) networks. The locations of D2D transceivers are modeled as a Poisson Cluster Process (PCP). In each cluster, devices are equipped with multiple antennas, and the active D2D transmitter (D2D-Tx) utilizes mmWave to serve one of the proximate D2D receivers (D2D-Rxs). Specifically, we introduce three user association strategies: 1) Uniformly distributed D2D-Tx model; 2) Nearest D2D-Tx model; 3) Closest line-of-site (LOS) D2D-Tx model. To characterize the performance of the conside…
This paper characterizes the performance of a generic $K$-tier cache-aided heterogeneous network (CHN), in which the base stations (BSs) across tiers differ in terms of their spatial densities, transmission powers, pathloss exponents, activity probabilities conditioned on the serving link and placement caching strategies. We consider that each user connects to the BS which maximizes its average received power and at the same time caches its file of interest. Modeling the locations of the BSs across different tiers as independent homogeneous Poisson Point processes (HPPPs), we derive closed-for…
In this paper, we consider the downlink signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) analysis in a heterogeneous cellular network with K tiers. Each tier is characterized by a base-station (BS) arrangement according to a homogeneous Poisson point process with certain BS density, transmission power, random shadow fading factors with arbitrary distribution, arbitrary path-loss exponent and a certain bias towards admitting the mobile-station (MS). The MS associates with the BS that has the maximum SINR under the open access cell association scheme. For such a general setting, we provide an anal…
We study the meta distribution (MD) of the coverage probability (CP) in downlink non-orthogonal-multiple-access (NOMA) networks. Two schemes are assessed based on the location of the NOMA users: 1) anywhere in the network, 2) cell-center users only. The moments of the MD for both schemes are derived and the MD is approximated via the beta distribution. Closed-form moments are derived for the first scheme; for the second scheme exact and approximate moments, to simplify the integral calculation, are derived. We show that restricting NOMA to cell-center users provides significantly higher mean, …
Future Internet-of-Things (IoT) will connect billions of small computing devices embedded in the environment and support their device-to-device (D2D) communication. Powering this massive number of embedded devices is a key challenge of designing IoT since batteries increase the devices' form factors and their recharging/replacement is difficult. To tackle this challenge, we propose a novel network architecture that integrates wireless power transfer and backscatter communication, called wirelessly powered backscatter communication (WP-BC) networks. In this architecture, power beacons (PBs) are…
Deploying Sub-6GHz networks together with millimeter wave (mmWave) is a promising solution to achieve high data rates in traffic hotspots while guaranteeing sufficient coverage, where mmWave small cells are densely deployed to provide high quality of service. In this paper, we propose an analytical framework to investigate the integrated Sub-6GHz-mmWave cellular networks, in which the Sub-6GHz base stations (BSs) are modeled as a Poisson point process, and the mmWave BSs are clustered following a Poisson cluster process in traffic hotspots. We conduct stochastic geometry-based analysis and der…
In this paper, we present the downlink coverage and rate analysis of a cellular vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X) communication network where the locations of vehicular nodes and road side units (RSUs) are modeled as Cox processes driven by a Poisson line process (PLP) and the locations of cellular macro base stations (MBSs) are modeled as a 2D Poisson point process (PPP). Assuming a fixed selection bias and maximum average received power based association, we compute the probability with which a {\em typical receiver}, an arbitrarily chosen receiving node, connects to a vehicular node or an RSU a…
A two-tier heterogeneous cellular network (HCN) with intra-tier and inter-tier dependence is studied. The macro cell deployment follows a Poisson point process (PPP) and two different clustered point processes are used to model the cache-enabled small cells. Under this model, we derive approximate expressions in terms of finite integrals for the average delivery rate considering inter-tier and intra-tier dependence. On top of the fact that cache size drastically improves the performance of small cells in terms of average delivery rate, we show that rate splitting of limited-backhaul induces no…
Coordinated multi-point (CoMP) transmission is a cooperating technique among base stations (BSs) in a cellular network, with outstanding capability at inter-cell interference (ICI) mitigation. ICI is a dominant source of error, and has detrimental effects on system performance if not managed properly. Based on the theory of Poisson-Delaunay triangulation, this paper proposes a novel analytical model for CoMP operation in cellular networks. Unlike the conventional CoMP operation that is dynamic and needs on-line updating occasionally, the proposed approach enables the cooperating BS set of a us…
The low-earth-orbit (LEO) satellite network with mega-constellations can provide global coverage while supporting the high-data rates. The coverage performance of such a network is highly dependent on orbit geometry parameters, including satellite altitude and inclination angle. Traditionally, simulation-based coverage analysis dominates because of the lack of analytical approaches. This paper presents a novel systematic analysis framework for the LEO satellite network by highlighting orbit geometric parameters. Specifically, we assume that satellite locations are placed on a circular orbit ac…
In this paper, a novel Poisson hole process (PHP) modeling of wireless networks is proposed. We consider a more general hole shape, i.e. circular sector holes in a random direction, to capture the spatial separation between tiers in a millimeter wave (mmWave) heterogeneous cellular network (HCN). In this case, small cell BSs (SBSs) and macrocell BSs (MBSs) are distributed as a PHP and Poisson point process (PPP). Due to fundamental propagation differences between mmWave and microwave frequencies, we incorporate blockage and directional beamforming in the network model. Using tools from stochas…
In coverage-oriented networks, base stations (BSs) are deployed in a way such that users at the cell boundaries achieve sufficient signal strength. The shape and size of cells vary from BS to BS, since the large-scale signal propagation conditions differ in different geographical regions. This work proposes and studies a joint spatial-propagation (JSP) model, which considers the correlation between cell radii and the large-scale signal propagation (captured by shadowing). We first introduce the notion of the directional radius of Voronoi cells, which has applications in cellular networks and b…
Future Internet-of-Things (IoT) will connect billions of small computing devices embedded in the environment and support their device-to-device (D2D) communication. Powering this massive number of embedded devices is a key challenge of designing IoT since batteries increase the devices' form factors and battery recharging/replacement is difficult. To tackle this challenge, we propose a novel network architecture that enables D2D communication between passive nodes by integrating wireless power transfer and backscatter communication, which is called a wirelessly powered backscatter communicatio…
Multi-cell cooperation is a promising approach for mitigating inter-cell interference in dense cellular networks. Quantifying the performance of multi-cell cooperation is challenging as it integrates physical-layer techniques and network topologies. For tractability, existing work typically relies on the over-simplified Wyner-type models. In this paper, we propose a new stochastic-geometry model for a cellular network with multi-cell cooperation, which accounts for practical factors including the irregular locations of base stations (BSs) and the resultant path-losses. In particular, the propo…
For unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) aided millimeter wave (mmWave) networks, we propose a unified three-dimensional (3D) spatial framework in this paper to model a general case that uncovered users send messages to base stations via UAVs. More specifically, the locations of transceivers in downlink and uplink are modeled through the Poisson point processes and Poisson cluster processes (PCPs), respectively. For PCPs, Matern cluster and Thomas cluster processes, are analyzed. Furthermore, both 3D blockage processes and 3D antenna patterns are introduced for appraising the effect of altitudes. Bas…
In this letter, we characterize the load on the cellular macro base stations (MBSs) due to vehicular users modeled by a Poisson line Cox process (PLCP). Modeling the locations of MBSs by a homogeneous 2D Poisson point process (PPP), we first characterize the total chord length distribution of the lines of the Poisson line process (PLP) intersecting the typical Poisson Voronoi (PV) cell. Using this result, we derive the exact probability mass function (PMF) of the load on the typical MBS. Considering the computational complexity of this expression, we propose an easy-to-use approximation for th…
In recent times, the use of stochastic geometry has become a popular and important tool for performance analysis of next-generation dense small cell wireless networks. Usually, such networks are modeled using 2 dimensional spatial Poisson point processes (SPPP). Moreover, the distinctive effects of line-of-sight (LOS) and non-line-of-sight (NLOS) propagation are also not explicitly taken into account in such analysis. The aim of the current work is to bridge this gap by modeling the access point (AP) and user equipment (UE) locations by 3-dimensional SPPP and considering the realistic LOS/NLOS…
Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) serves multiple users by superposing their distinct message signals. The desired message signal is decoded at the receiver by applying successive interference cancellation (SIC). Using the theory of Poisson cluster process (PCP), we provide a framework to analyze multi-cell uplink NOMA systems. Specifically, we characterize the rate coverage probability of a NOMA user who is at rank $m$ (in terms of the distance from its serving BS) among all users in a cell and the mean rate coverage probability of all users in a cell. Since the signal-to-interference-plu…
The performance analysis of heterogeneous cellular networks (HetNets), that relied mostly on the homogeneous Poisson point process (PPP) for the spatial distribution of the users and base stations (BSs), has seen a major transition with the emergence of the Poisson cluster process (PCP)-based models. With the combination of PPP and PCP, it is possible to construct a general HetNet model which can capture formation of hotspots and spatial coupling between the users and the BSs. While the downlink coverage analysis of this model in terms of the distribution of the received downlink signal-to-int…
We give numerically tractable, explicit integral expressions for the distribution of the signal-to-interference-and-noise-ratio (SINR) experienced by a typical user in the down-link channel from the k-th strongest base stations of a cellular network modelled by Poisson point process on the plane. Our signal propagation-loss model comprises of a power-law path-loss function with arbitrarily distributed shadowing, independent across all base stations, with and without Rayleigh fading. Our results are valid in the whole domain of SINR, in particular for SINR<1, where one observes multiple coverag…
Cooperation in cellular networks has been recently suggested as a promising scheme to improve system performance. In this work, clusters are formed based on the Mutually Nearest Neighbour relation, which defines which stations cooperate in pair and which do not. When node positions follow a Poisson Point Process (PPP) the performance of the original clustering model can be approximated by another one, formed by the superposition of two PPPs (one for the singles and one for the pairs) equipped with adequate marks. This allows to derive exact expressions for the network coverage probability unde…
Driven by new types of wireless devices and the proliferation of bandwidth-intensive applications, data traffic and the corresponding network load are increasing dramatically. Network densification has been recognized as a promising and efficient way to provide higher network capacity and enhanced coverage. Most prior work on performance analysis of ultra-dense networks (UDNs) has focused on random spatial deployment with idealized singular path loss models and Rayleigh fading. In this paper, we consider a more precise and general model, which incorporates multi-slope path loss and general fad…
Satellite networks are promising to provide ubiquitous and high-capacity global wireless connectivity. Traditionally, satellite networks are modeled by placing satellites on a grid of multiple circular orbit geometries. Such a network model, however, requires intricate system-level simulations to evaluate coverage performance, and analytical understanding of the satellite network is limited. Continuing the success of stochastic geometry in a tractable analysis for terrestrial networks, in this paper, we develop novel models that are tractable for the coverage analysis of satellite networks usi…
Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) has been regarded as a promising tool to strengthen the quality of signal transmissions in non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) networks. This article introduces a heterogeneous network (HetNet) structure into RIS-aided NOMA multi-cell networks. A practical user equipment (UE) association scheme for maximizing the average received power is adopted. To evaluate system performance, we provide a stochastic geometry based analytical framework, where the locations of RISs, base stations (BSs), and UEs are modeled as homogeneous Poisson point processes (PPPs…
This paper analyzes the impact of user mobility in multi-tier heterogeneous networks. We begin by obtaining the handoff rate for a mobile user in an irregular cellular network with the access point locations modeled as a homogeneous Poisson point process. The received signal-to-interference-ratio (SIR) distribution along with a chosen SIR threshold is then used to obtain the probability of coverage. To capture potential connection failures due to mobility, we assume that a fraction of handoffs result in such failures. Considering a multi-tier network with orthogonal spectrum allocation among t…

Disordered complex networks are of fundamental interest as stochastic models for information transmission over wireless networks. Well-known networks based on the Poisson point process model have limitations vis-a-vis network efficiency, whereas strongly correlated alternatives, such as those based on random matrix spectra (RMT), have tractability and robustness issues. In this work, we demonstrate that network models based on random perturbations of Euclidean lattices interpolate between Poisson and rigidly structured networks, and allow us to achieve the best of both worlds : significantly i…
Cooperation in cellular networks is a promising scheme to improve system performance. Existing works consider that a user dynamically chooses the stations that cooperate for his/her service, but such assumption often has practical limitations. Instead, cooperation groups can be predefined and static, with nodes linked by fixed infrastructure. To analyze such a potential network, we propose a grouping method based on node proximity. With the Mutually Nearest Neighbour Relation, we allow the formation of singles and pairs of nodes. Given an initial topology for the stations, two new point proces…
