In a wireline network, nodes form links with only those nodes they are wired to, and the links
do not interfere with one another. In contrast, in a wireless network, signal transmissions are …

The recent increasing interest in ad hoc networks has motivated the study and development
of interference models capable of capturing the intrinsic characteristics of this kind of …

This paper tries to reconcile the tension between physical model and protocol model that
have been used to characterize interference relationship in a multi-hop wireless network …

We develop a general model to estimate the throughput and goodput between arbitrary
pairs of nodes in the presence of interference from other nodes in a wireless network. Our …

Since interference is the main performance-limiting factor in most wireless networks, it is
crucial to characterize the interference statistics. The two main determinants of the …

In this paper, we introduce a mathematical framework for the characterization of network
interference in wireless systems. We consider a network in which the interferers are …

This paper addresses the following question: how reliable is it to use the unbounded path-
loss model G (d)= d-α, where α is the path-loss exponent, to model the decay of transmitted …

Cellular systems are becoming more heterogeneous with the introduction of low power
nodes including femtocells, relays, and distributed antennas. Unfortunately, the resulting …

The degrees of freedom (DoF) of K-user MIMO interference networks with constant channel
coefficients are not known in general. Determining the feasibility of a linear interference …

The Signal to Interference Plus Noise Ratio (SINR) on a wireless link is an important basis
for consideration of outage, capacity, and throughput in a cellular network. It is therefore …
