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 …

Throughput scaling laws of an ad hoc network equipping directional antennas at each node
are analyzed. More specifically, this paper considers a general framework in which the …

Directional antennas can be useful in significantly increasing the capacity of wireless ad hoc
networks. With directional antennas, independent communications between nodes can …

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 …

Directional antennas offer tremendous potential for improving the performance of ad hoc
networks. Harnessing this potential, however, requires new mechanisms at the medium …

Capacity is one fundamental problem in wireless Ad hoc networks. Deploying directional
antennas to wireless networks can reduce interference among concurrent transmissions and …

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 …

Publisher Summary Communication is maintained by the transmission of data packets over
a common wireless channel. The absence of any fixed infrastructure such as an array of …

In this paper, we present an analytical model for evaluating the impact of shadowing and
beamforming on the connectivity of wireless ad hoc networks accommodating nodes …

Network Capacity, which is limited by interference between simultaneous transmissions of
neighboring links, is a fundamental performance metric for wireless ad hoc networks. Ref.[1] …
