Aggregate information efficiency in wireless ad hoc networks with outage constraints
Pedro H. J. Nardelli, Paulo Cardieri · 2008
In this paper we analyze the performance of wireless ad hoc networks with outage constraints. Using the performance metric aggregate information efficiency, we study the relationship among spectral efficiency, interference immunity, link activity and outage probability. We propose a numerical procedure to estimate the outage probability in a network as a function of several network parameters. Numerical results show that moderate modulation level and high coding rate maximize the network performance.
