A Statistical Characterization of Localization Performance in Wireless Networks
Christopher E. O'Lone, Harpreet S. Dhillon, R. M. Buehrer
Localization performance in wireless networks has been traditionally benchmarked using the Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB), given a fixed geometry of anchor nodes and a target. Howev…
Integrated mmWave Access and Backhaul in 5G: Bandwidth Partitioning and Downlink Analysis
Chiranjib Saha, Mehrnaz Afshang, Harpreet S. Dhillon
With the increasing network densification, it has become exceedingly difficult to provide traditional fiber backhaul access to each cell site, which is especially true for small ce…
Coverage Analysis of a Vehicular Network Modeled as Cox Process Driven by Poisson Line Process
Vishnu Vardhan Chetlur, Harpreet S. Dhillon
In this paper, we consider a vehicular network in which the wireless nodes are located on a system of roads. We model the roadways, which are predominantly straight and randomly or…
Nearest-Neighbor and Contact Distance Distributions for Matern Cluster Process
Mehrnaz Afshang, Chiranjib Saha, Harpreet S. Dhillon
In this letter, we derive the cumulative density function (CDF) of the nearest neighbor and contact distance distributions of the Matern cluster process (MCP) in R2. These results…
Asymptotic Blind-spot Analysis of Localization Networks under Correlated Blocking using a Poisson Line Process
Sundar Aditya, Harpreet S. Dhillon, Andreas F. Molisch +1
In a localization network, the line-of-sight between anchors (transceivers) and targets may be blocked due to the presence of obstacles in the environment. Due to the non-zero size…
Coexistence of RF-powered IoT and a Primary Wireless Network with Secrecy Guard Zones
Mustafa A. Kishk, Harpreet S. Dhillon
This paper studies the secrecy performance of a wireless network (primary network) overlaid with an ambient RF energy harvesting IoT network (secondary network). The nodes in the s…
Joint Uplink and Downlink Coverage Analysis of Cellular-based RF-powered IoT Network
Mustafa A. Kishk, Harpreet S. Dhillon
Ambient radio frequency (RF) energy harvesting has emerged as a promising solution for powering small devices and sensors in massive Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystem due to its u…
Tight Lower Bounds on the Contact Distance Distribution in Poisson Hole Process
Mustafa A. Kishk, Harpreet S. Dhillon
In this letter, we derive new lower bounds on the cumulative distribution function (CDF) of the contact distance in the Poisson Hole Process (PHP) for two cases: (i) reference poin…
3GPP-inspired HetNet Model using Poisson Cluster Process: Sum-product Functionals and Downlink Coverage
Chiranjib Saha, Mehrnaz Afshang, Harpreet S. Dhillon
The growing complexity of heterogeneous cellular networks (HetNets) has necessitated a variety of user and base station (BS) configurations to be considered for realistic performan…
Serving Distance and Coverage in a Closed Access PHP-Based Heterogeneous Cellular Network
Zeinab Yazdanshenasan, Harpreet S. Dhillon, Peter Han Joo Chong
Heterogeneous cellular networks (HCNs) usually exhibit spatial separation amongst base stations (BSs) of different types (termed tiers in this paper). For instance, operators will…
Poisson Cluster Process: Bridging the Gap Between PPP and 3GPP HetNet Models
Chiranjib Saha, Mehrnaz Afshang, Harpreet S. Dhillon
The growing complexity of heterogeneous cellular networks (HetNets) has necessitated the need to consider variety of user and base station (BS) configurations for realistic perform…
Downlink Coverage Analysis for a Finite 3D Wireless Network of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
Vishnu Vardhan Chetlur, Harpreet S. Dhillon
In this paper, we consider a finite network of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) serving a given region. Modeling this network as a uniform binomial point process (BPP), we derive th…
Effect of Cell-Selection on the Effective Fading Distribution in a Downlink K-tier HetNet
Mustafa A. Kishk, Harpreet S. Dhillon
This paper characterizes the statistics of effective fading gain in multi-tier cellular networks with strongest base station (BS) cell association policy. First, we derive the prob…
