Transmission Capacity of Wireless Networks presents a framework for computing the outage probability (OP) and transmission capacity (TC) in a wireless network. Transmission capacity is a performance metric for wireless networks that measures the spatial intensity of successful transmissions per unit area, subject to a constraint on the permissible outage probability (where outage occurs when the SINR at a receiver is below a threshold)._x000D__x000D_This volume gives a unified treatment of the TC framework that has been developed by the authors and their collaborators over the past decade. The mathematical framework underlying the analysis is stochastic geometry: Poisson point processes model the locations of interferers, and (stable) shot noise processes represent the aggregate interference seen at a receiver. It presents TC results (exact, asymptotic, and bounds) on a simple model in order to illustrate a key strength of the framework: analytical tractability yields explicit performance dependence upon key model parameters. It goes on to present enhancements to this basic model - channel fading, variable link distances, and multi-hop. Chapter 5 presents four network design case studies well-suited to TC: i) spectrum management, ii) interference cancellation, iii) signal threshold transmission scheduling, and iv) power control. Chapter 6 studies the TC when nodes have multiple antennas, which provides a contrast vs. classical results that ignore interference._x000D__x000D_Transmission Capacity of Wireless Networks is essential reading for anyone with an interest in wireless network design and in understanding the fundamentals of the performance and behavior of such networks._x000D_ Table of contents :- _x000D_
