Abstract

The research for analytical models able to estimate the amount of interference, which is the most important cause of performance degradation in wireless networks, has received a lot of attention in the past years. In this paper we propose an analytical framework for the evaluation of any statistical moment of the interference provided by a Poisson field of nodes located on a given region of limited area. The propagation environment we consider is characterized by a deterministic distance-dependent path-loss and log-normal shadowing. Exact closed form expressions are given for some specific regions.
