Abstract :
We derive outage expressions and throughput bounds for wireless networks subject to different sources of nondeterminism. The degree of uncertainty is characterized by the location of the network in the uncertainty cube whose three axes represent the three main sources of uncertainty in interference-limited networks: the node distribution, the channel gains, and the channel access. The range for the coordinates is [0,1], where 0 indicates complete determinism, and 1 a maximum degree of randomness (nodes distributed in a Poisson point process, fading with fading figure 1, and ALOHA channel access, respectively)
