Abstract

We apply the theory of products of random matrices to the analysis of multi-user communication channels similar to the Wyner model, which are characterized by short-range intra-cell broadcasting. We study fluctuations of the per-cell sum-rate capacity in the non-ergodic regime and provide results of the type of the central limit theorem (CLT) and large deviations (LD). Our results show that CLT fluctuations of the per-cell sum-rate C m are of order $$ 1/\sqrt m $$, where m is the number of cells, whereas they are of order 1/m in classical random matrix theory. We also show an LD regime of the form P(|C m − C| ɛ) ≤ e −mα with α = α(ɛ) 0 and C = $$ \mathop {\lim }\limits_{m \to \infty } $$ C m , as opposed to the rate $$ e^{ - m^2 \alpha } $$ in classical random matrix theory.
