Throughput scaling law of a large wireless network equipping directional antennas at each
node is analyzed based on the information-theoretic approach. More specifically, this paper …

Connectivity is a crucial issue in wireless ad hoc networks (WANETs). Gupta and Kumar
have shown that in WANETs using omnidirectional antennas, the critical transmission range …

A major obstacle stunting the application of mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) is the lack of
a general throughput analysis theory for such networks. The available works in this area …

Directional antennas and beamforming can significantly improve point-to-point wireless links
when perfectly aligned. In this letter we investigate the extreme opposite where antenna …

In multi-hop wireless networks, per-hop forwarding strategies that optimize local
transmissions can have a subtle impact on network performance. Motivated by a number of …

It is known at a qualitative level that directional antennas can be used to boost the capacity
of wireless ad hoc networks. Lacking is a measure to quantify this advantage and to …

Considering a disk of unit area with n nodes, we investigate the capacity of wireless
networks using directional antennas. First, we study the throughput capacity of random …
