Abstract
With increasing spatial reuse of the radio spectrum,
co-channel interference is becoming the dominant noise source and
may severely degrade the communication performance of wireless
transceivers.
In this paper, we consider the problem of statistical-physical
modeling of the co-channel interference.
Statistical modeling of interference is a useful tool to analyze
the outage probabilities in wireless networks and for designing
interference-aware transceivers.
Our contributions include
- developing a unified framework to derive interference models
for various wireless network environments,
- demonstrating the applicability of the symmetric alpha stable
and Middleton Class A distributions in modeling co-channel
interference in ad-hoc and cellular network environments, and
- deriving analytical conditions on the system model parameters
for which these distributions accurately model the statistical
properties of the interference.
Simulation results allow us to compare the key properties of
empirical cochannel interference and their statistical models
under different wireless network environments.
