Abstract

Understanding the capacity of end-to-end throughput limits with any given wireless ad hoc network is critical to its deployment but very challenging task. This paper aims at conducting a quantitative analysis to get an expression for the upper bound for the throughput limits for regular network topologies like chain and grid networks. Factors such as carrier sense threshold that optimizes the throughput of such networks are examined. The results from the analysis will then be extrapolated to estimate closed-form solution for the throughput capacities of complex and random topologies.
