Abstract

In this note we prove the unconditional stability of the Foschini-Miljanic algorithm. Our results show that the Foschini-Miljanic algorithm is unconditionally stable (convergent) even in the presence of bounded time-varying communication delays, and in the presence of topology changes. The implication of our results may be important for the design of Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) based wireless networks.
