Capacity of Multi-Channel Wireless Networks with Random (c,f) Assignment; Technical rept

摘要

We argued for the need to study the performance of multi-channel networks in situations where there are constraints on channel switching. We proposed some constraint models in 1) to capture some expected constraints, and analyzed two such models, viz., adjacent (c,f) assignment and random (c,f) assignment. We studied the impact of such restricted switching, quantified by the parameter f (where f is the number of channels an individual node may switch to) in the regime c = O(log n). One of our proposed models was termed random (c,f) assignment.
