Abstract :
The Manhattan street network (MSN) is a special kind of biconnected regular mesh network (RMN) which operates as a slotted communication system. The Letter presents closed form analytical expressions of internode distance (IND) distribution, mean INDs (MINDs), and the topology z transforms, T(z), for zonal traffic distribution (ZTD) patterns in two different types of MSN.
