Abstract:

In Ad hoc wireless network, connectivity is a fundamental issue which restricts the design of system protocol. Based on the theory of stochastic geometry, a connectivity model focused on signal-to-interference (SIR) ratio is set up in presence of Nakagami-m fading and interference. The paper derives a close formula of connectivity probability with interference and Nakagami-m fading which is never obtained in previous works. Two-dimension shot-noise theory in stochastic geometry for interference is well applied. The formula is verified by simulation. The results show that the connectivity is affected by the scatter of users, wireless propagation environment, interference and so on.

Key words:

Ad-hoc wireless network, connectivity, the probability of isolated node, interference, Nakagami-m fading
