For more than three decades, stochastic geometry has been used to model large-scale ad
hoc wireless networks, and it has succeeded to develop tractable models to characterize …

This paper surveys and unifies a number of recent contributions that have collectively
developed a metric for decentralized wireless network analysis known as transmission …

Wireless networks are fundamentally limited by the intensity of the received signals and by
their interference. Since both of these quantities depend on the spatial location of the nodes …

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 …

This book presents an in-depth study on the recent advances in Wireless Sensor Networks
(WSNs). The authors describe the existing WSN applications and discuss the research …

The emergence of mobile cloud computing enables mobile users to offload applications to
nearby mobile resource-rich devices (ie, cloudlets) to reduce energy consumption and …

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

Two-tier femtocell networks-comprising a conventional cellular network plus embedded
femtocell hotspots-offer an economically viable solution to achieving high cellular user …

Matérn hard core processes of types I and II are the point processes of choice to model
concurrent transmitters in CSMA networks. We determine the mean interference observed at …

The performance of wireless networks is fundamentally limited by the aggregate
interference, which depends on the spatial distributions of the interferers, channel …
