In this paper, we investigate the effect of Rayleigh fading on the connectivity of wireless ad
hoc networks. We consider static nodes that are equipped with omnidirectional antennas …

Basic properties of wireless ad-hoc networks, such as connectivity, have traditionally been
analyzed and evaluated under the assumption that all nodes have homogeneous …

The capacity of ad hoc wireless networks is constrained by the interference between
concurrent transmissions from neighboring nodes. Gupta and Kumar have shown that the …

We study the problem of connectivity in MIMO fading ad-hoc networks. Based on a
probabilistic analysis of achievable capacity on individual links of a random topology, we …

We investigate the connectivity of fading wireless ad-hoc networks with a pair of novel
connectivity metrics. Our first metric looks at the problem of connectivity relying on the …

The capacity of wireless ad hoc networks is constrained by the interference caused by the
neighboring nodes. Gupta and Kumar have shown that the throughput for such networks is …

We study the effects of physical layer parameters on the connectivity of fading ad-hoc
networks. Relying on a symbol error rate connectivity metric for such networks, we assume a …

This paper analyzes the impact of beamforming antennas on the topological connectivity of
multihop wireless networks. As a metric for the connectivity of the network, we use the …

We consider the average radio coverage area size of a connected cluster/spl Omega/(/spl
alpha/, r) in a uniformly randomly deployed wireless network over a D-dimensional infinite …

Many real systems are hybrid networks which include infrastructure nodes in multi-hop
wireless networks, such as sinks in sensor networks and mesh routers in mesh networks …
