  • Abstract
    This paper investigates the performance of spatial diversity techniques in dense ad hoc networks. We derive analytical expressions for the contention density in systems employing MIMO-MRC or OSTBC. In the case of MIMO- MRC the expressions are based on new expansions for the SIR distribution in the high interference regime typical in dense networks. Our results are confirmed through comparison with Monte Carlo simulations.
