On the Capacity of Hybrid Wireless Network in CDMA Scheme

The hybrid wireless network is a novel network model, where a sparse network of base stations is placed within an ad hoc network. Throughput capacity of hybrid wireless network is an important parameter to evaluate the performance of this network model. In this paper, we propose a general framework to analyze the capacity of hybrid wireless network in CDMA scheme by Markov chain approach and derive the mathematical analytical expressions on the capacity of the finite-population system under some routing policy. Moreover, simulation results show that hybrid wireless network could be a tradeoff between centrally controlled networks and ad hoc network, which have the directive significance to network designers
